Avocado 51

[ralfstc]

Hi folks,

I notice that in the Shepherd opus there is a MkIII aero in avocado green. I was wondering if anybody had ever seen an example? I have seen a 45 in that shade. I think I may be wondering because it would have matched the bathroom suite in my childhood home!

Thanks,

Ralf

Aha! Olive green. Sorry, it just looked like avocado. Now, I wonder where one would find such a thing . . . .
