Sargent floor and furniture enamel for interior work.
A 1920 trade booklet from the Sargent-Gerke Co. promoting Sargent floor and furniture enamel for interior work, aimed at householders and painters. Its pictures show a man in blue overalls brushing dark enamel onto a floor beside a tin, flat colour swatches of white gloss enamel and vermilion No. 211, and a cover with a maid in a white apron polishing a floor. A designer could take the flat swatch layout and the bold yellow, black and red cover palette as a clean, period-appropriate system for product labelling.
