Answer 4

I think about 2,300 colors altogether

Actually, Crayola has only produced 330 unique "true" colors. A true color is the color that you see when you use the crayon. They have over 746 different named colors that they've used so far. Many are just renames of the same true color. They do this for themes and other promotional or marketing efforts.

Answer 5

Today they have 133 colors in their catalog. Over their entire history, though, they have made 330 different "true" colors. A true color is the color you see when you color with the crayon. It can be different than the "apparent" color; which is the color you see when it is inside the box. Then there is the "named" color which is the color name assigned to the crayon. Crayola has had over 746 distinctly named crayons over the years (and the list will continue to grow). Most of these are renames of the same colors used for themes and marketing efforts. However, over the years they have changed the true colors of their common colors such as Blue and Red. They've also changed names of colors and done swaps of true colors to their corresponding named colors making it a very complex and interesting history.
