Did you know that since the first Crayola crayons were made in 1903 there have been only 13 colors retired? Yup, it's true. Most have been retired in the last 25 years as well, so I'm sure some of these you'll remember. Take a look and P.S., I now want to buy a box of every color and a bunch of coloring books.
