It's clearly a blue one. What I can't tell, because of the coloured background, is what shade of blue/teal it is, whether it is the later "jewell-like" blue, as Mark describes in in his book , or if it is the earlier sort of more turquoisey blue. If it is the darker blue, it may be from some time into the '80s.

Thank-you. That is decidedly the later, '80s, "jewell-like" blue.
