Jefferson Blue was the name for 1939.
That 39 deluxe coupe colour seems to my tired old eyes to be fairly close for 1939.
I remember seeing original 37/38 cars back in the 60's ands 70's still with their original paint and it seemed that Washington Blue was quite a bit darker than the 1939 shade.
Down here in NZ some Toyota Hiace vans seem to be pretty close to Jefferson Blue.
