Color harmony in house painting.
A 1910 trade catalogue issued by the Patton Paint Co., probably of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, aimed at house painters and homeowners choosing exterior colour schemes. Its pictures are hand-tinted renderings of American foursquare and bungalow-style houses, each captioned as a numbered colour scheme, showing how body, trim, and roof tones work together; a designer could take from them the pairing of muted siding with contrasting dark trim and roof.
