about COLO

The first instrument ever designed to measure color was developed in 1880 by Joseph Lovibond, a British brewer, to ensure that the beer he produced was a consistent color.

White is sometimes described as an absence of color, although it does appear in different shades - for example, with a faint yellow or blue tinge. It is most strongly linked with light, which allows us to see all of the other colors. 

Many people believe colors are in your dreams as a form of healing or guidance and that  negative shades and negative combinations of colors are a reflections of your fears and reservations about such healing and guidance.

Today, the world is a very colorful place. But it wasn't always that way. Binney & Smith, the company that makes Crayola® products, played a big role in coloring our world. In the late 1800s, it was Binney & Smith's red oxide pigments that were used to make paint for what has become a timeless symbol of America — the classic red barn! *[1] 

To date, Crayola has made over 100 billion crayons. The makers of Crayola crayons produce more than 2 billion crayons each year, an average of 5 million crayons each day. That's enough crayons to make one giant statue 100 feet taller than the Statue of Liberty. 

Mr. Rogers's favorite Crayola crayon is lemon yellow. Unfortunately for him, lemon yellow has been retired. Some other celebrity favorites: Billy Crystal, burnt sienna; Bryan Adams, denim; Whoopi Goldberg, magenta; Mike Myers, blue; Charles Schulz, copper; Candice Bergen, dandelion; and Marilyn Quayle, sky blue.
