These appear from the photos to have a black background, whereas the ones that were originally on the bike had a blue background. I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me the difference between black and blue SL decals. Also, these are "rub-on" decals - are these worth having? I worked the archives over pretty good on this one, but didn't find the exact answers to my exact questions. Thanks in advance.

Ed: The gold Columbus decals with the black highlights are SP decals, not SL. That's one way to tell if a frame is SP vs. SL tubing..... Greg Parker Ann Arbor, Michigan
