A superb deconstruction! And a new label too! I look forward to more glass ceilings, glass walls, and maybe glass floors.
ReplyDeleteWhat year do you date this office space? 1920s? I still can't figure out what the business is. Insurance? Finance? Newspaper?
I have two more which are far less interesting, but they do give a hint as to what they sold.
DeleteI'm with Mike. Baffled by what they "sold" although I would bet the farm they are salesmen.
