There is Something More to
Paint
Than its mere lasting qualities. Almost
any honest paint will last—good materials
and good mixing will do it.
But the Real Art Comes in Producing
Right colors in uniformity. The trouble
with the ordinary paint is that the colors are
hard--lack variety—and two cans of the same
color will not match.
DeVOe Paints not on,y laAt”they are mixed
— with the best of materials—
