Checkerboard

Interested in knowing which year the Checkerboard Approach was introduced and which types of aircraft of that era flew that approach to runway 13?

The restoration of the Checkerboard has taken place. Two sides South and West have been restored and painted .
South side is fire engine red / white. West side a burgundy / white
Did the west side serve a purpose for the 13 approach and why the darker red ?
