Plate 57?

[edit]

My copy of 1930 Maerz and Paul only goes through plate 56. Is there a plate 57 hidden some place, showing a color wheel? Could someone mail me a copy, or tell me where it's hidden? Or tell me whether the book mentions color wheel at all beyond the p.6 note: In "Color Nomenclature," Ridgway states that "For satisfactory color-wheel work it is necessary to discard practically all the so-called artists' colors, ..., where he was referring to Maxwell's color disks?

Plate 17

[edit]

It's Plate 17 on Page 57. I entered the number of the page in error as being the number of the plate. The colors on the right and bottom of the plates with the most highty saturated colors represent the colors on the color wheel. Keraunos (talk) 15:07, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Does the book say anything about the color wheel? Does it say anything about this color being half way between some other named colors? Dicklyon (talk) 15:17, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
