WARNING! Stay away from the Pantone + series. It will make you batty trying to locate your color as it is not in numeric form. Huge fail for Pantone IMO

I need a new one and had just heard about the new ones that aren't in order. If Im looking online which book set should I get ?

The GP1401 looks like its in order but not sure .

you can take the new books apart and reorder them. It takes about 20-30 min to get it done.
New books have additional colors and should probably be your first choice as the colors and formulas shift/change with time. . .

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

I have an old Rutland coloring Book I use, it gets me very close to just about any color I need to mix with just a little playing around.  I can't even tell you how old this joker is anyone know ?
