Advantages of uncolourised

Colourization involves a bit of speculation, so this may have higher encyclopedic value.

Advantages of colourised

Makes elements pop out.

Gorgeous and artistic.

If the specific production doesn't matter (posters, illustrations of the show as a whole, etc), has no disadvantages

Fun fact: If I'm not horribly mistaken, those wings are pretty clearly drawn on after the photo was taken, likely because the real props wouldn't stay still long enough.
