familyman Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 I found this photo on Ebay of The Racer and the tower. The Racer is painted it’s original colors and the tower is an odd green. Quote
familyman Posted April 7, 2005 Author Posted April 7, 2005 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...6168312259&rd=1 Sorry about that. It's an interesting picture from the past. Quote
Skippy Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Actually, its not a photo, its an artisits renduring of The Racer on a souvineer postcard. Very interesting, nice find! Quote
KIBeast Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Yeah, the Eiffel Tower was never that color. It's always been the same color you see today. Although, The Racer was painted those colors. Quote
familyman Posted April 7, 2005 Author Posted April 7, 2005 I just thought it was and odd picture. Ugly color for the tower. Quote
PKI_Diana Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Tower has been varying degrees of the same color it is today. Quote
Kenban Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 You can tell the picture would have to be from before 1982. Both sides of The Racer are facing forwards and you can see the skyway running. (when did that get taken out anyways?) Quote
Jasper Posted April 8, 2005 Posted April 8, 2005 They should restore everythingg to its original color. That would cost a fortune though. Quote
Legend Rider Posted April 8, 2005 Posted April 8, 2005 I just thought it was and odd picture. Ugly color for the tower. well it is being painted a green shade this year, its not going to be light blue, but more like the statue of liberty. Quote
