About the colours: colours used in 19th century lithography, especially on cheap paper like these magazines, never seem to be very bright. Originals of (for instance) Imagerie d'Epinal (Pellerin),and the Danish Familien Journal show this. Also bear in mind that the paper was probably not very white, and is always seriously discoloured now. See example.
