Space Needle in Galaxy Gold


The Space Needle seen in its original Galaxy Gold on a sunny day, dressed for its 50 year anniversary.

Galaxy Gold isn't exactly a Pantone standard, though you can buy stationary of that hue.  The color was not received positively at the time; Prince Charles noted it reminded him "of the protective paint used on bridges."  Hence the Space Needle has spent most of its life in white.
