Color-aid 220 Color Set (4 1/2" X 6")
Product Description
Since 1948, Color-Aid Corp has been manufacturing the Color-Aid system of colored paper. Initially developed as a backdrop for photographers, Color-Aid was soon thereafter discovered by Josef Albers and has since then become an indispensable teaching tool in art and design classes. Graphic illustrators, fashion designers, architects, photographers, interior designers, artists and other creative professionals depend on Color-Aid papers for many of their projects. Color-Aid products are being used now more than ever throughout the country and over-seas.
The Standard Set consists of 220 matte-finished colors. An instruction leaflet describing the organization of the colors provides a grid for designating the colors, as these are not printed on the back. The Standard Set was the prevailing system from 1948 until 1989, at which time the Full Set was released.
