I posted a question about this a while back and thought I'd try again, this
time with an illustration!

I need to match a drywall texture and it doesn't look like anything that
comes out of a can these days. It's similar to what some people call a
slapbrush texture, but more subtle. Here's a link to a photo at close to
100% scale:

Thanks for any advice.
