Old Raleigh Paint Codes

Hello please would anybody have the old paint codes for early 1980's Raleigh Ice Green as per the Record Ace, and a Raleigh dark blue from the mid 1950's as per the Lenton Sports?

I am rebuilding 2 x RRA and a RLS.

Thanks

.....
were there ever any codes for Raleigh paint colors?
The catalogs from the mid 70's had some colors in the back, but they were more of a general representation of the color than anything else...
Here's the colors in on of my catalogs..

Thanks, there is a midnight blue of interest, no ice green though. Woodrup told me there's a chap in York called Julian who has every Raleigh brochure ever made or something, is he on this forum I wonder?

The codes are probably like 1 for black, 2 for BRG, 3 for red.
