It is interesting since it places, convenient for comparison, the buildings of the different American cities. It contains also a list of the material manufactured by the above company, includinig the materials in the interest of which this pamphlet is issued, the fireproof paints, building material, the asbestos packings and vulcasbeston material, and the mica insulating compunds for electrical installations.
