Also, if the paint store asks for a chip to match, ask how big the chip has to be, and if you have stucco, getting a suitable sized chip can be difficult. You will also need to match the finish of the paint, it appears that original paints were mostly a FLAT finish, we will be getting a satin finish when we get our house repainted.
I have no idea if any of the house painters offer a color matching service, but i am sure they will not paint a patch and will only paint an entire wall.
Hope this helps, and I wish you good luck with your project.

Thanks ! Im a former Pa resident also ! I wil probably buy a gallon of flat closest that I can match. It may be close enough where only I will be able to know. Thanks for your advice.
