Longman & Martinez pure paints 1902.
A 1902 paint color card published by Longman & Martinez, a trade maker of pure paints, aimed at painters and buyers choosing house colours. The pages show rows of numbered swatches, each labelled with a colour name such as Fawn, Salmon, Gray or Steel Gray, with a column listing recommended trimming colours. A designer could take the restrained, earthy palette of muted browns, olives, grays and terracotta as a period-accurate range for vintage interiors or print.
