The originals were available in a variety of media. Some were printed on cloth and sewn to bundles of clothing, some on paper which were then glued to crates while others were water transfers. The latter were found on Hi-power pistols, No. 19 Sets (and others) and CMP doors. I believe that the original size for the CMP was a 4-inch diameter but someone would have to confirm that. The transfer shown above (in Hanno's most recent post) isn't very true to the original but the one shown in his earlier post (which consists of the gold sparkle colour) is very good.
I will dig mine out and post them.
