The colors are paint coated onto a plastic substrate. This means there are no chips to come off or cracks for soil to get stuck in. This book is a six-page-waterfall design, including Hues 10R to 5Y and Gley colors from 10Y to 5B. Each waterfall set has a tab with the Hue on it to make it easy to flip to the desired waterfall. Every color in the waterfall set is visible at the same time. The Chroma for each page is printed in place of a page number to quickly communicate the exact color you are viewing. Review: Fits in your back pocket. - This book is completely water proof (every page not just the color chip pages), and fits in your back pocket. Color Values only go to 7 all 8's are omitted, so you may want to carry a Munsell in your vehicle in case you come across some value 8 soils. There are no punched holes in the color chips, but the chips pages are varying width, allowing you to see the entire HUE all at once. The smallest color chips are 4x larger than the Munsell Book color chips. The spiral binding could use a bit of reinforcing, I can see it failing after repeated use. Review: 472/5000 It is a good alternative to the munsell color chart - 472/5000 It is a good alternative to the munsell color chart. The pages are plastic, although a little thin. Anyway, if you take into account the care indicated by the manufacturer, it is very useful for field activities, especially in archeology. The size of the book is perfect to take it everywhere, even if you prefer to keep it inside a ziploc bag to protect it... it is the type of field elements that do not bulge in your pocket or backpack. ## Features - Hues 10R to 5Y and Gley 10Y to 5B. - Colors arranged according to the Munsell Color Order System. - Colors identified by Munsell Notation. - 100% Waterproof - Convenient pocket size. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00LSZYGUG | | Color | Multi Color | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 8 Reviews | | Manufacturer | Visual Color Systems | | UPC | 680474016112 | ## Product Details - **Color:** Multi Color - **Manufacturer:** Visual Color Systems - **UPC:** 680474016112 ## Images ![The Globe Professional Soil Color Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81v7DoyXTLL.jpg) ![The Globe Professional Soil Color Book - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bKiOiLihL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits in your back pocket. *by B***F on May 12, 2020* This book is completely water proof (every page not just the color chip pages), and fits in your back pocket.

It's a good size, water-resistant, and accurate. The pages are organized a little differently than the Munsell, but otherwise it's a great alternative. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/15276727-the-globe-professional-soil-color-book](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/15276727-the-globe-professional-soil-color-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
