With all this talk about new colors and the recent release of the official color

There a number of color charts floating around. Here are links to two at peeron.
There are others (as the first peeron chart notes).

Peeron color and x-ref chart...
http://www.peeron.com/inv/colors

Chart provided to peeron by LEGO and believed to be the current active list of
colors at LEGO (as of a few months back). Interestingly, this chart has the
'new' colors on it. It even shows 3 shade of 'Stone Gray', thus far we have only
seen two of them in released sets. The new shade of brown *may* be the one
marked as 'Rust' (can anyone confirm this ?). Unknown to most people here at the
time, the release of this chart may have been a warning of sorts about the
impending color changes.

Right, those references are great.  I just thought it would be ideal to have an
actual physical color reference, in ABS, like I'm sure the master builders have.
It's something I would find awefully handy, but maybe others wouldn't.
