Old Town paint design #13

Currently planning some paint for a 1923 OTCA that I am restoring. Although it was originally delivered in the standard dark green, paint design #13 (https://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/designs/design13.gif) caught my eye. Does anyone have a better image of this or know a reliable resource I can purchase/view?

From the gunwhales down, the stripe colors look to be:
- Canoe base color
- Blue
- Base Color?
- White
- Red
- White
- light green
- yellow
- Base Color

A higher resolution version of that image is attached below. I've never seen an original example of this design so can't say how accurately the colors were copied. There was one modern version that was done with colored plastic electrical tape but that had mixed success. I would encourage you to simply pick colors that look good to you. The text below lists the colors used and concludes saying "Your choice of stripe colors." Let me know if you need anything else. Please post some pictures of your results. Thanks,

Benson

Here's a copy of design 13 from the OT design chart for what it's worth -- not really any more help than the image above from Benson
