Hello,
maybe she is referring to the so-called "Munsell color charts"? I have the
1975 Munsell soil coil chart, published by Macbeth Division of Kollmorgen
Corp. 2441 North Calvert St. Baltimore, Maryland 21218.
Hope this helps.

Subject: elusive "series" on color theory
To: [log in to unmask]
A student came in looking for the books her painting professor had
recommended: a series or set of four books about color theory. Three of the
authors of individual volumes were Birren, Itten, and Munsell. I couldn't
identify any such set or series on the spot. Later I read through Mary
Buckley, Color Theory: A Guide to Information Sources and found no sets or
series listed there either. I did notice that Van Nostrand Reinhold and/or
Reinhold publishers had published books by these authors. Am I missing
something, or are these publications the elusive "series"?
