Default "Antique" Coverite color

I've read a few descriptions and have seen one fairly poor picture online of a roll of "Antique" colored supercoverite. Can someone that has a piece scan it next to a piece of white paper so I can see the color a little better? The pictures I've seen make it look fairly brown while the descriptions I've read make it sound more yellow (which is what I'm looking for).

Thanks

This is that covering... in the sunlight.. it looks very good.. I spray clear where I expect the engine exhaust to flow, on the bottom mostly, as the covering tends to absorb oil.
Mac's for instance shows a lot of greasy streaks over the years...

Remember that if you want to hide wood grain, and any frame color shade, this color does nothing to hide that, it must be painted. Although it is of an amber color, it is a see through material.
