Beige/light gray/off white: I’m not sure what material this is.

“Engine Controls and propeller controls”:
The engine control box has two levers outboard, on the far left, which have round, black, knobs. There are two levers inboard, on the far right of the quadrant, which have square, often orange yellow, handles. The quadrant itself seems black, with bare aluminum trim and placards, and a red button on the inside (toward the pilot) at the back end.
I presume those colors correct for 1941-1945. I wonder, is the yellow-orange for real? I assume so.
