1930 – Interior Colors

10 Historically Documented Colors

This 1930 Benjamin Moore brochure features 10 authentic historic interior colors originally formulated in gloss finishes for walls and woodwork. Produced by Benjamin Moore & Co., these colors reflect the refined early 20th-century palette for interior spaces, providing depth, elegance, and period-accurate vibrancy.

For modern application, these gloss colors are offered in satin or semi-gloss. Customers may request eggshell for a softer, low-sheen finish by contacting us directly — orders can be updated to accommodate this special request.

These colors are ideal for:

• Restoring 1930s-era homes with historically accurate interior finishes
• Recreating period-appropriate wall and trim color schemes
• Modern interiors seeking authentic early 20th-century color aesthetics

Note: Original sheen levels are preserved as closely as possible. Gloss colors are supplied in modern satin or semi-gloss, with eggshell available on special request.

Color Matching & Sample Disclaimer

We define our historic color matches as precison-matched in hue to original manufacturer references. Each 8 oz sample is produced in our standard match grade to accurately represent the color.

Due to differences between paint products and finishes, the same color may vary slightly when produced in other grades or sheens.

Higher-grade paint options are available for final applications, just as with full home orders.

Upgrade for Best Results

Your sample represents the color. Your final paint determines the finish.

For full projects, we recommend upgrading to a higher-performance paint line for superior coverage, durability, and overall appearance—especially on exteriors and detailed trim.
