23rd Series Turquoise Blue

I recently bought a 1949 23rd Series Packard Deluxe Eight Touring Sedan in the original color (not original paint) of Turquoise Blue. I have only seen two other cars from the 23rd series in this color. I was wondering if any of you other fellows out there knew how many cars were made in this color in this series. Thanks.

I'm Confused. If a 1949 is a 23rd Series and a 1951 is a 24th Series what is a 1950??

Currently, of the 47 23rd series Packards in the Owners Registry, only 1 is turquoise. I don't think that turquoise became really popular until the mid-50's when it was used with great success in two and three tone combinations by all the car companies.
