Thanks to all. We have a scientific illustrator in the family who does book illustration, etc. George Green's post caught her interest. Darlyn DelBoca N.W. WA.

They have not faded in the artificially lighted hallways after 4-5 years. However, there are some surprising "errors" in the scientific names for some fruits especially on the periodic table. (e.g., a picture of a "black" cherry is labelled Prunus serotina which is a forest tree black cherry and not Prunus avium which we eat.) The picture is of a P. avium cherry BTW. There are more examples of this on this table and for the stone fruits chart but unless you are an academic it probably does not matter. They are colorful and attract people's interest.
