ibm model m stickers

I have the chance to buy an ibm model m space saver with a blue sticker. Just wondering which stickers are the more valuable/better boards? Does the price vary for like a black sticker than the blue?

Whatever you do don't change the sticker, for anything other than the origional colour, the boards birth certificate will confirm all a buyer needs to know about the board.
Thinking about things isn't the same as doing things. Otherwise everybody would be in jail.

Is 1992 a good vintage?

All the Space Saving Keyboards are pretty much the same, except the blue label ones have drainage channels.
