Ever amusing is right. This was my first foray into the '39 color chart and I
find it interesting. Definitions have certainly changed, at least I think they
have. But that generates some questions so...
In the '39 table Mike is developing at the HIPS site
(http://www.worldiris.com/public_html/39-49_Color_Tables/39-49_CL_Color_Table.html)
at the entry for R7D (Red predominant, pink to red toned self, dark) is a
pointer to:

My question is: What was the definition of "self" at that time ('39) that
includes what looks to me to be a bitone by todays standards. Or do we know?
Or, or...
Just musing in my torpid state.
