I don't think there has ever been a regular paint chart for interior colors. The names and number are in the 48-54 parts book -- INTRO section, page XVII -- but even if you found the color info and could find NOS or have new made, your dash is undoubtedly faded. Trying to repair and blend in a small area with newly made or NOS would probably be very noticeable.
IMO, you would be better off taking a small item -- say an ashtray -- to a local automotive paint store that does color matching either by eye or computer and have the minimum order made. The paint would be much closer to matching your present color. The downside is you might need to buy more than you need which isn't necessarily bad because then you have some for the next time. When I had some exterior paint made I bought the minimum which was I think was a pint or two spray cans equivalent. There was some left over after filling the spray cans which he put in a typical brush cap bottle.
