Beautiful sales literature brochure highlighting the new colors in the GE appliance line.

In the 1950s, General Electric was first with Mix-and-Match, an innovative color concept that allowed homemakers to combine pastel appliance shades for an exciting, modern look. In the 1960s, GE was first to bring you Harvest and Avocado, the trend-setting decorator colors that brought kitchens alive with rich new tones. And now, GE is first again with The New Naturals, the widest range of colors ever offered by General Electric.

Now you can get the natural look with the all-new appliance color Almond, a subtle shade that blends beautifully with almost any other color. Or choose one of the five other New Naturals, all in a high-gloss finish and all designed for maximum decorating versatility: Coffee, Fresh Avocado, Harvest Wheat, Onyx, and Snow.
