Excellent, thanks for posting. There's a superb suggestion of speed in that illustration, as in all Frederick Gordon-Crosby's motorsport work.

It's colour as used on the cover. Perhaps it was gold-plated - or glowing from the engine heat....

Probably the publishers saving money by printing the cover in just two colours.
