Default 30 roadster top colors?

On a 30 roadster what were the possible top colors available if the car is Washington Blue?

Blue, black, tan?

Deluxe or Standard? Standard 30 roadster tops were black long-short grain artificial leather. Deluxe 30 roadsters used either tan canvas, sometimes referred to as Hartz cloth, or an olive drab canvas. I vaguely recall an article in the Model A News many years back regarding the olive drab roadster tops and side curtains.

Forgot to mention that the body color of the car is irrelevant to the top material or color. If you want to match or coordinate your Washington Blue body to top color, that's your call.
