I wish someone would upload a 1983 version of this, when the 64-count box was 25 years old.

The well-documented ritual concerning changed color names occurred first in 1958, when Prussian Blue was changed to Midnight Blue to reflect the fact Prussia was no longer a country. Four years later, Flesh was changed to Peach.

In 1999, Indian Red was renamed Chestnut; the allegation being that misguided Native Americans mistook the name for their skin color, when actually it referred to some red pigment from India.

I was seriously upset when Crayola was taking out a few of my favorit color some years ago, so I went around to all the kids and was asking them for those colors which are " burnt seiena" and "maze". and I was in my late 20's! LOL!!!! The maze is my favorit of all the colors. LOL!
