Even if Americans heeded warnings about chrome yellow's stability, they may have used it unwittingly.
A mixture of chrome yellow and Prussian blue was sold under the name “chrome green” in the nineteenth century.

It should not be confused with the mixture of chrome- yellow and Prussian blue which is sometimes sold as chrome- green. http://books.google.ca/books?id=tuk-AAAAYAAJ...An Illustrated Dictionary of Words Used in Art and Archaeology: ...
