Each beholder believes its form to be an ideal, and that any deviation from that form is a flaw in the racial purity of its kind.

5e really embraced this diversity, noting in the new Monster Manual (2014) that The disdain a beholder has for other creatures extends to other beholders. So it quickly became clear in researching color schemes there have been many different looks for beholders over the years. Zenopus also provided a picture of the “Official AD&D Rub-Down Picture Transfers,” which has a decidedly olive colored beholder consistent with these notes. Yellow-orange jagged teeth jut out from the pinkish mouth, ready to rend and engulf prey. A huge central eye stares balefully forth. The small eyestalks are a lighter olive, with disgusting pink sockets from which green and orange ringed eyes stare fixedly. Between these plates, cracks flush purplish-green, while highlighted areas glow yellow-green. The Coloring Album notes: An olive-green sphere, this eye-tyrant is covered in enormously tough chitinous plates. The only other 1e-era notes I could find were in the Official Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Coloring Album (1979), a somewhat odd third-party product but with Gary Gygax listed as the author. I don't believe there was a beholder on a Dragon or module cover until the Waterdeep and the North supplement (1987), which depicts the infamous crime lord Xanathar as bluish-purple with yellow highlights.
As further support of this color scheme, over on a Dragonsfoot thread the esteemed D&D scholar Zenopus noted that the Polly-S line of official AD&D miniature paints from 1979 or 1980 had some beholder-themed colors, which included “450 Beholder Body Fuchsia” and “454 Beholder Eyestalk Violet.” Later editions of D&D have certainly used pinkish or purplish color schemes for their beholders, as seen on the cover of the 2nd edition Monstrous Compendium (1989). This set contained, I believe, the very first “official” beholder miniature, sculpted by Andrew Chernak.
