I noticed that there are a couple of rougher hand swatches that are marked "Fresco" (as opposed to "Crispaire") in the H&S Crispaire book.

I thought that "Fresco" is trademarked by Minnis and Martin Sons & Co. If this is the case, could it mean that H&S is selling "Fresco" from Minnis and Martin Sons & Co?
