Does anyone happen to know what color the plates are in the Belville # 5943 Designer Interior set are? From the catalog I can't tell whether they are turquoise, light blue or other? There doesn't seem to be an inventory available yet. Thanks. (20 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.belville)
