How to paint : how to Jap-a-lac, how to varnish, how to have colorful furniture, walls, color schemes : the Glidden Company
A 1930 how-to booklet published by the Glidden Company, a paint manufacturer, offering home decorators instructions on Jap-a-lac, varnishing, and colour schemes for furniture and walls. The pictures show painted kitchens and a staircase being finished, with colour blocks of pale green, coral, and sage set against wood and checkerboard linoleum floors that suggest practical palettes for period interiors.
