12 Colors

This 1950 Pittsburgh Paints catalog features Wallhide Flat Wall Paint, a non-historic interior flat paint offered in 12 versatile colors. These shades reflect the popular interior trends of the early 1950s, with soft, muted tones for everyday residential use. Examples include Wedgwood Blue, Pastel Yellow, Sylvan Green, Horizon Blue, and others. This palette is designed to provide a balanced mix of color options for walls and other interior surfaces.

Originally flat, these colors are offered in flat or eggshell, allowing for modern usability while maintaining the period look.

Ideal for:

• Interior walls in mid-century homes

• Period-appropriate color schemes for 1950s residential interiors

• Homes seeking versatile, muted yet stylish wall colors

Note: Flat finish preserved; eggshell available.

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.

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