many vendors out there who sell list 1 and list 3 cotton covered wire.

i recommend when possible to upgrade to RHH/RHW type. ive seen that pull back wire stuff and its kinda usually found when there is a solid interior single conductor.
you find "pull back wire" in cars where there is a fuse link typically tied to the starter relay.

Old stoves and washing machines actually have the color bands more "like" radios.
i noticed in our 1975 magic chef stove, the tracer on th wires are bands and / or spiral "dashes".

i am not a purist on these things so i may not be helping.
