While I agree that a wholesale cut-and-paste of the Munsell history is not encyclopedic and best removed from the article, it's pretty clear from the character of the prose that it was published in the 1882 History of Morris County and hence, as far as I know, public domain; the "1999–2016" copyright at the bottom of the page is irrelevant. (It should have been properly attributed, of course.)Choess (talk) 19:55, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
