Kodachrome doesn't lie (Feb 1968)

You are correct, it does not!

It may have been the wrong shade of paint to be applied on #3189 (looking more aquamarine greenish), as this was done with volunteers at 207th Street Shop.

It could have been better, but I will give them credit in reviving the car after that NYCTA facility was to receive them, as transferred from Pitkin Yard in 2017, and putting them on the list of cars to be restored.

R-10 #1823 (later as #2970), 207th Street, IND 8th Avenue Line, Route: "A"; January 25, 1970; Photo by Doug Grotjahn, Collection of David Pirmann, as posted on nycsubway.org
