Hi. Anyone out there have the Annual Houses issue from 2002–I’m in love with the slate roof on the cover and am hoping to learn what type of slate it is (Vermont?), and what official color (looks kind of like unfading mottled green & purple.) We’ve decided to go with slate roofing on the home we’re building, and the color choices are dizzying. Thanks for any input!
