It's a very interesting subject, and I have been investigating it for several years for an article. Although all the Gas Trap cylinders found with original finish are a plum brown, I don't believe that's the color in which they were finished. IMO, they were black, but aged to brown with sunlight, handling, and oil. I have seen one or two with a black color in the protected area under the barrel. More work to be done on this.Information
