Chelsea used the same label design throughout its life, although there were two different color schemes. The label design showed the logo at the top, resting on a series of clouds. The CHE-1000 Series and the RCA series both used a predominantly orange label (far left), with some pink, and a yellow sky. The logo lettering was blue with a green sash. After leaving the RCA distribution, the Chelsea label changed to a predominantly green label with some blue, and again a yellow sky. Logo lettering was pink with an orange sash. Print on both labels was black. |
