A propos de cet article

One large atlas folio colour serigraphed display on thick board, sized 21 x 33.25 in. (minor edgewear, some minor scuffing to corners, faint minor tidemark in the lower fore-edge almost imperceptible in the black paint), still a VG exemplar. First edition, thus, of this exceedingly scarce counter display poster, advertising the famed "Balanced Formula House Paints," also known as ACME's "New Era" house paint whose brilliant durable finish was achieved through heavy lead and mineral-based pigments formulas. The premium paint brand struggled through the Great Depression, but their ACME Quality paints were the gold standard noting that it "spreads 30% farther, hides 30% better, and wears 100% longer" than the other brands, and were especially popular in rural and suburban homes for their paints which set the standards for modern exterior paints. Acme White Lead and Color Works was incorporated in Detroit, MI in December, 1884, by H. Kirke White, A.E.F. White, and W.L. Davies. The manufacturing plant and offices were located at the corner of Grand River Ave., & Fourth St. They originally specialized in the manufacture of dry colours, white leads, zincs, and putties, but quickly moved into manufacturing prepared paints. In the late 19th century, the ACME White Lead & Color Works was the only American company producing their own dry colours, and these were made in over 60 shades and qualities. In addition, they were known for their Neal's Carriage Paint, Granite Floor Paint, Acme Sash Paint, Acme Interior Fresco Paints, and their Decorative Paints. No similar examples located; A small paint sample brochure is preserved at the Library of Michigan.…
