I saw the thread a day or two ago concerning Paulson Color Samples and the # of different colors, etc. I have a pretty large collection of around 300 of these Color Samples with various names, lettering, address, etc.

Shown below are the 90 different Named Colors I either have in my collection or that I know of. The 90 chips are listed in alpha order by the name - there are some spelling variations that I consider as unique chips, i.e Light Blue and LT Blue or Russet and Russett, etc.

I would like to compile a complete listing of all the various Spellings and Styles of these chips. The first step is to get a complete listing of ALL the colors by Name. After that is completed - then we can move on to Font Size, Styles of H&C, with address, etc, etc.

I believe there may be as many as 500 to 700 different varieties of these chips. Let's see how many we can come up with and then everyone will know what they need to complete the total collection.

If you have or know of any Color Names NOT listed here - please post a scan of the chip or send me an email jerrybirl@verizon.net and I will begin to make a spread sheet for these chips.

Take care,
Jerry "I like Samples" Birl
