Paint By Number

BK0013

The paint-by-number craze reached its zenith in the 1950s but continues today as paints and kits are avidly collected, exhibited in galleries, and traded on eBay. This entertaining book charts the history of this strange cultural phenomenon with interesting facts, amusing commentary and lots of great pictures of old kits and paintings. Highly recommended for fans of kitsch and Americana.

Paint By Number includes over 200 examples of paint-by-number ephemera and two pull-out paintings ready to be filled-in!
