they weren't shown in the catalogs with chrome forks but my frameset was NOS and I've seen quite a few others with NOS frame that have chrome forks and they never have decals on the forks which is weird.

If you are set on black then do it Nottz style - get some black electriclal tape and wind it round... that way you can see if you like them black before you commit  :daumenhoch:
