1, As a model, it is not evidence, but instead someone's interpretation
2, It is not the c.1885 UP standard paint style, so might represent c. 1880, simpler than earlier, but not yet 1885.
3, The table of colors, B&W vs colors is reasonable, but doesn't take into account the variations in films, emulsions, and processing...
