Does anyone know what serial number range production batch of the Albatros DV and Dva were produced with 4 / 5 color lozenge camo?

Albatros first used the 5 color fabric on the production batch of the Alb. D.V starting about D.2225/17 to 2361/17. the next order D.4403/17 to 4702/17 they also used printed fabric. The Alb. D.Va batch D.5165 -5499/17 were mixed with, I do not know the finish for D.5165 to 5249/17, printed fabric from 5250 -5324/17. Painted camo from D.5325 to5374/17. Printed 5color from D.5375 - 5449/17, D.5450 -5499/17 not known. D.Va 5600-5849/17 use painted camoufklage. OAW built Alb. D.Va machines D.6500 on were covered with 5 color fabric. Some machines in the range D.7075 - 7199/17 and D.7300 - 7349/17used painted camo. As far as i know the balance to 7549/17 used printed 5 color fabric. Albatros Werke used salmon pink rib tapes and OAW used blue. Salmon and blue were not as far as I know used by any other manufacturers contrary to what has been said. For example LVG used natural color linen tape on the C.V when it was covered with printed or cur strips of the lozenge fabric. Fokker always used cut strips of fabric.
