List of Crayola crayon colorsFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crayola crayons have come in many colors since their introduction in1903. By 1905 Binney & Smith's Crayola crayon product line hadreached 30 colors.[1] In 1958 the number of colors increased to 64. Eightfluorescent colors were introduced in 1972, increasing the number ofcolors to 72. In 1990 the total increased to 80 colors with theintroduction of 16 colors and the discontinuation of eight colors. Thenumber of colors was increased to 96 in 1993 and to 120 in 1998, thoughwith thirteen crayons being retired along the way, the total of colors is133.[2] Along with the regular packs of crayons, there have been manyspecialty sets, including Silver Swirls,[3] Gem Tones,[4] Pearl Brite,[5]
Metallic FX,[6] Magic Scent,[7] Silly Scents,[8] and more.
Colors have been renamed through the years. In 1958, Prussian Blue wasrenamed Midnight Blue. The color known as Flesh was renamed Peachin 1962, partially in response to the U.S. Civil Rights Movement. IndianRed was renamed Chestnut in 1999 due to concern that some childrenthought the crayon color represented the skin color of NativeAmericans.[2] According to the company, however, the name originallyreferred to a reddish-brown pigment from India that is used in artists' oilpaint.[2] In the past, some crayons have been temporarily renamed, suchas the 2004 State-Your-Color Contest[9] crayons and the eight Kids'Choice Colors in the 2008 50th anniversary 64-count box.[10]
