National Aniline & Chemical Co. Nacco Dyes Color Samples on Thread, 90 Colors rag doll And there are so manyMore total gorgeousness this the second of two antique dye color samplers listed today, both I think about as good as it gets. I seem to have an insatiable want for color these days, and these feel like pure sustenance to me. This one, for Nacco Dyes, was produced by the National Aniline & Chemical Co., c. 1910s 20s and features 90 color samples, applied to a mix of silks, wools, and cottons, thus feeling like a textile sampler as well as a color one.
