Reynolds 531 decal mystery...

[Canuk]

This is the first time I've seen a purple and green Reynolds logo on a decal. Can't quite work it out. Is it a repro? It's not a colour fade, it appears to be similar to the rest of the bike. It doesn't look like a water slide original though, perhaps a modern vinyl?

I only have this one photo of it.

Looks like a slightly dodgy scanned repro one.

The 753 decals were this colour, pretty much exactly as I remember. I'm wondering if there was a different colour trialled for the French market? The bike in question does have 'too many' decals, a few Campagnolo Equipped which will be coming right off, but the paint is original and frame seems 100% correct!

Hmmm, every day a school day! Just looked on the Classic Lightweights Reynolds transfer page and there is purple 753, never knew that.
This looks like the master of the one in your photo (metric Reynolds tube I guess): https://equusbicycle.com/bike/reynolds/toptubes/toptubes 6.pdf
