    1936 Football photo: Notre Dame vs Navy

    I need help identifying the colors that each team was wearing during a game in 1936. Here's what I know/don't know:

    ND helmet: mustard with black stripes
    ND jersey: probably dark green, as they were known to pull out the green if their blue clashed with the opposing team, or for effect. There are no color photos of them wearing the green jersey, but I would think that the jersey 'tone' in any positive-i.d. b&w pics with green jerseys would allow i.d. of the green as normal green, emerald or dark green. I have viewed a 'color' film of the 1939 game against Iowa where Notre Dame changed jerseys at half-time (presumably changing to green with white shoulder yoke), and while you cannot determine color, the new jersey looks just as dark.

    ND pants: gold, probably shiny
    ND shoulder yoke: white

    Navy pants: probably light gold, but unsure
    Navy jerseys: probably Navy
    Navy helmets: Dark, but no idea as to color(s). Part is probably navy, but could be two colors

    The goal is to create a color painting from this photo, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
