1947 - Pittsburgh Paints Interior
13 Colors
This 1947 Pittsburgh Paints catalog features Wallhide Flat Wall Paint, a flat finish interior paint offered in 13 soft, muted colors typical of the mid- to late-1940s.

Originally flat, these colors are offered in flat or eggshell, allowing for modern usability while maintaining the soft, period-appropriate palette.

Interior wall finishes with subtle mid-century pastel tones

Homes seeking a cool, understated color palette

Modern applications where a soft, classic wall color is desired
Note: Original flat finish preserved; eggshell available.
