Peerless Watercolors

The Peerless packaging is 'Kodak' yellow to associate the product with photo tinting techniques.
At 11 Diamond Place, Rochester, NY, the Peerless company had a business for about 100 years. They worked closely with Kodak, originally as aniline dye paint colors to enhance photographs. When I took this picture, a pickup pulled up. The new owner is going to renovate the building into a loft apartment on top and a business space on the bottom. It's not a pretty building, but it's products made a lot of pretty photos and paintings. I like Peerless paints, and now the company is based in Stoughton, Wisconsin!
