ABSTRACT A method and apparatus are disclosed for the manufac- ture of a colored chip or colored swatch bearing sheet, i.e. a color chart, comprising a base sheet bearing an array of adhes- ively attached colored chips in rows with indicia identifying the color of each chip with a particular paint. The base sheets are fed automatically from a stack of sheets to an adhesive ap- plying means which applies spots of adhesive to the sheet at swatch receiving areas on the sheet. Narrow webs or ribbons of swatch material are severed to form the individual swatches or color chips which then are transferred automatically to a pass- ing sheet and applied thereto. The sheets pass through a series of swatch forming and applying stations with a row of swatches being applied to each sheet at each of the respective stations. Preferably, the sheets are fed continuously and at a relatively fast rate of speed. The arrangement and size of the swatches may be easily changed to allow the apparatus to be used for var- ious types of color charts.
