More of a pantone man myself.
Mmmm… colour chart…. “Thinnies” (thin crayons as opposed to thick, chunky baby crayons) were a real status symbol at primary school! I remember being awed by my first box of 64 crayola crayons at 8yrs old! The perfect colours all sitting magnificently in their stepped rows… even gold and silver crayons and a crayon sharpener!! It was the first sign of a manic obsession with colour charts. Now I make do with the scrolling charts of pantone colours in a photoshop palette to keep my obsession in check!
Fantastic!
I prefer a era with less colour
Can we blame Crayola for the ugly 1970s?
i preferred derwent colours percils the full box from the 50’s
