Description

Milton Bradley wrote Elementary Color, a teacher's book on color study, in a third edition from Springfield. Bradley had written on color in the schoolroom and the kindergarten before. Henry Lefavour, a professor of physics at Williams College, wrote the introduction. The copyright dates to eighteen ninety-five.

Early pages set out the theory of color and the solar spectrum. Six spectrum standards anchor the Bradley system of color teaching. Later pages give hands-on trials with the color wheel, the color top, and spinning disks. Old theories get tested by mixing three pigments. The book treats color as a thing children can learn by eye and hand, not by rote.
