THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW (CLASSIC REPRINT)

Excerpt from The Architectural ReviewHen you look at this enduring monument to art - its grace, its repose, its beauty, all unite to express one thought eloquently - permanency. It is a valuable building, its contents almost priceless. So it is made of the best materials obtainable. It has a johns-manville Asbestos Roof.This doesnt mean that it has an expen sive roof, because over a period of several decades, or as far into the future as you care to think, it will need no coating or painting because it is all mineral. And during your life and even those of your children it will still be guarding the art treasures beneath it from weather and fire.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
