This is my very first game...I was helping my son color and thought of this. I do know it has been done here before, but I thought it would be fun anyway....

I will start with 

VIOLET-BLUE 

 

One per post and post as many as you like......

Thanks for playing.

In 1990, the color Lemon Yellow was retired by Crayola
In 1972, Ultra Green was added. In 1990, it was renamed Screamin' Green.
The crayon once called Flesh was renamed in 1962 to "Peach" amidst the civil rights movement.
In 1903, Binney & Smith introduced their first box of crayons, offering the following colors:

Black, Blue, Brown, Green, Orange, Red, Violet & Yellow.
The next addition of colors to the Binney & Smith Crayola collection didn't happen until 1949, with the addition of 40 new colors.
Amongst the 1940 additions were Flesh & Prussian Blue. Flesh was renamed Peach in 1962, and Prussian Blue was renamed to Midnight Blue in 1958.

Vermillion
Through out the years, more colors were added, names were changed, and some were officially retired. In 1998, the largest box of crayons without duplicate colors available featured 120 colors.
In 2003, to mark Crayola's 100th anniversary, people voted out 4 crayons- Blizzard BLue, Magic Mint, Mulberry, & Teal Blue. To replace them, 4 new colors were also voted on- Inch Worm, Jazzberry Jam, Mango Tango, & Wild Blue Yonder.
