Crayola bid farewell to the crayon color dandelion on Friday, a dark shade of yellow introduced in 1990. Formerly called Binney & Smith, the Easton, Pennsylvania-based company has been producing crayons since 1903. Crayola crayons are sold in 80 countries around the world and have 99 percent brand recognition in US-based homes. The first Crayola wax crayon was produced by Edwin Binney and C. Harold Smith in June 1903. The name was coined by Binney's wife Alice, which comes from "craie," French for "chalk," and "ola" for "oily."Crayola will replace dandelion with a color from "the blue family," but it will leave it up to fans to select the shade's name.This is the thirdtime that the manufacturer's has discontinued one or more colors, and thefirst time it's swapped one out in its 24-crayon box.More than 200 Crayola colors have been produced worldwide.
