Short version: I'm looking for any information on the colors for the decals seen in this picture. I'm hoping to have them recreated, and have had trouble finding a color photograph of them.
To be clear, I'm interested in the decals above and below the porcelain No Nox plate.
Long Version: I'm attempting to restore a pump to match the one seen in this photograph. The uncropped version of the photo shows my dad holding the nozzle, about to fill up a customers car with No Nox. I'm recreating this pump to honor his memory. This is the only photograph of these particular decals that I've been able to find anywhere. Any help that anyone can give me for sourcing on these decals would be appreciated.
Looking for 70's and 80's Gulf memorabilia!

Thanks, SandPCollector...that will at least give me some ideas for colors if I can't find any images of the actual decal...I'm sure they were similar.

Yes I am. Or even just color photos of them so I can try to have them reproduced.

Years ago I had a box full of the horse shoes. They were very fragile and would break easily. I sold most of them and I believe I still have some but cannot remember where they are. I'll see if I can find them.

I collect 60s-70s Gulf stuff and especially Extra Kick stuff. I may have an extra set of orange/Brown decals. I do have the bigger/lower blue one. I will check.

Here is a former Red Bull refrigerator I just finished. The horseshoe decals on the front are original, on the side repop.
