Greetings

just a curiousity: when did the color yellow come into use as an accent color for cutouts in lugs? Any particular reason, or just that it highlights well? My red 82 Colnago had the cutouts in yellow, as did the blue ones I saw when I got mine. Subsequently, it seems yellow to be popular for blue, silver, red, and black paint schemes on vintage Masis, Derosas, and Cinellis I have seen as well.
