Color mixing guide for artists, painters, decorators, printing pressmen, show card writers, sign painters, color mixers : gives color mixtures by parts
A 1923 New York color reference by John L. King, published by Ogilvie, aimed at artists, painters, decorators, pressmen and sign writers and giving paint mixtures by parts. The pictures are plain: colour swatch grids showing primaries, secondaries and tints, a decorative cover panel of trade figures around a palette, a color wheel chart, and a line drawing of a hand stirring pigment in a bowl. A designer could take the swatch rows as a ready tint scale and the wheel as a clear primary-secondary arrangement.
