HE use of Architectural Terra Cotta has become general, and is firmly established in the principal cities of this country. If its superior qualities were generally understood, if it were known that it is not a mysterious compound, but simply architectural clay- ware; i. e., hollow brick made in all shapes and sizes from selected clay, progressive Architects and Manufacturers would find it easier to introduce it in the smaller cities.

The durability of terra cotta has been proven by numberless specimens, preserved to the present day, conveying records of the earliest nations known to history. _ Its effectiveness in absolutely protecting the steel skeletons of our “sky-scrapers’ has been demonstrated on a large scale by the Baltimore fire. High compressive strength, combined with cleanness of the surface, and lightness, add to its practical value.

An endless variety of unfading colors, and the ease with which the soft clay, from which terra cotta is made, yields to the

< most subtle impulse of the sculptor, as well as the comparatively low cost at which the most delicate as well as the most vigorous ornament can be

duplicated, make it the artistic building material par excellence.

GLAZED OR ENAMELED Terra Cotta is the ideal building material for smoky cities.

COLORISTIC TREATMENT of terra cotta will be a conspicuous feature in the American architecture of the future.

SPEAKING OF OUR OWN WORK AND WORKS. With the largest and best equipped plant, guided by thirty years of practical experience, assisted by the best talent in every department, and with the determination to excel, we have succeeded in producing the highest grade of Architectural Terra Cotta in all its varieties. :

THE DURABILITY OF OUR WARE has been proven by buildings put up a quarter of a century ago and by the fact that piles of “over pieces” of standard and enameled ware exposed to the weather in the open yard, and covered and filled with ice and snow year after year, are now in perfect condition, without crazes or cracks, and supply us with many of the finest samples we submit with our proposals.

THE FLINT-LIKE HARDNESS OF OUR MATERIAL is indicated by its clear, metallic ring. Our methods of burning exclude the possibility of a single under-bumed piece. ;

EQUAL CARE is exercised in every department. The result is perfect terra cotta, straight, everlasting, uniform in color, and artistic in form. Quality and promptness, and our never tiring efforts to please our patrons, made our reputation, and opened to us the market from coast to coast and from the Gulf to the Canadian Lakes.

THE PERFECTION OF OUR PRODUCT attracted the attention of European experts, and secured for us the highest awards in New Orleans, Chicago, and St. Louis.

At one time in 1905 we had the terra cotta for nearly a dozen UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS IN WORK.

We call particular attention to the fact that all our work is CAREFULLY ASSEMBLED after leaving the kilns, checked up and fitted to exact sizes and close joints, so that no chisel need be used on it at the building, provided the proper care is taken by the setter and the dimensions of the building are correct.

WE PREFER TO ERECT OUR OWN WORK, especially on large and complicated jobs, and employ a large force of compe- tent terra cotta setters for the purpose.

THE TIME REQUIRED FOR MANUFACTURING terra cotta from special designs varies from four weeks to three months, de- pending on the character of the work. Barring unavoidable accidents, delays are usually caused by failure to furnish complete working data at time order is placed. On the following page we call attention to a few points in this connection. We are always ready to make our own full size details, but must depend on others for carefully figured general drawings and iron diagrams.

WE PRESENT THIS CATALOG TO OUR PATRONS, not in an attempt to repeat or resell that which already has been done, but to show in some degree what has been accomplished, and the approved standard methods that have been evolved.

ON PAGE SEVEN WE SHOW AN ATTEMPT AT POLYCHROMATIC ‘TREATMENT at our branch office in the Railway Exchange Building. We invite inspection to this room, with its walls built of inlaid faience in various colors. Page eleven shows a view of the ROTUNDA OF THE SAME BUILDING, which is executed in cream colored enameled terra cotta instead of marble which until now has predominated for such work. PAGE NINE SHOWS THE EMAMELED TERRA COTTA EX- TERIOR OF THE SAME BUILDING. Further pages are devoted to photographs of a few of the buildings for which we furnished terra cotta since the publication of our previous catalog.

PAGES 53, 55, 57,59, 61, 63 and 65 display practical methods of construction, which we think will be appreciated by the archi- tectural profession.

WE HAVE STUDIED SKELETON CONSTRUCTION in connection with TERRA COTTA from its very inception. Our experience is at the disposal of our patrons.

PAGES 47, 49 and 51 show photographs of modeling. The designs will not be duplicated, except by permission of the respective architects.

THE LAST THREE PAGES SHOW COPINGS, CHIMNEY TOPS AND VASES for which we have the molds.

We keep in stock, in red and buff colors, ready for immediate shipment, some of the goods indicated on these sheets; but in most cases, especially when other colors are desired, we require from three to four weeks to fill an order. Any change from the dimensions, shapes, etc., given on these sheets, will increase the cost and the time required to manufacture. The prices given are for standard terra cotta. Extra charge will be made for all kinds of glazes and enamels, granite and fire flashed work. We make almost any color and finish ever produced in our line.

We omit the usual catalog sheets with all kinds of ornamental stock work, as it is impossible to meet even a small fraction of the ever varying demands, as to style and dimensions, of the long list of architectural features. When desired, we shall attempt to find stock molds approximately corresponding with designs submitted and will send photographs and drawings of such features as we have for approval.

We will take pleasure in welcoming at our works all those interested, and show them the latest and best in architectural terra cotta.

‘THe NontawesterN TERRA- Cotta Co.

Please Read the Following Carefully.

For Estimating.

NLESS DIAGRAMS with schedules showing all the Terra Cotta required are given, do not fail to send complete general drawings and specifications, including all elevations, all floor plans and roof plan, Longitudinal and Transverse sections, also iron drawings, large scale drawings and details if available. COLOR distinctly all Terra Cotta on all elevations.

Indicate Terra Cotta concealed behind porches, railings, inside of entrances, and give returns, etc.

Conditions Upon Which Proposals Are Based.

1. If not otherwise specified, all estimates are based on Standard Terra Cotta. 2. All moldings will be so profiled as to draw from the molds, except where details submitted for estimating require special treatment. "3. If no details are furnished for estimating, and if the specifications contain nothing to the contrary, all panels, mold- ings, and ornaments of equal dimensions will be made from the same molds, respectively.

4. SOFFITS. All soffits will be made plain, if not otherwise indicated.

5. ORNAMENTS. Photographs of ornaments will be submitted for approval if desired.

6. JOINTING. We joint work in the customary and most practicable manner, if no special provisions are made in the specifications.

7. KEY JOINTS. None will be made except where clearly shown, or necessitated by the construction.

8. BEDS. _ If not otherwise mentioned, we shall reduce or increase beds in the wall according to our judgment.

9. BACKING UP. All our work is calculated to safely support the superincumbent weight under ordinary circumstances; but all Terra Cotta should be filled in with brick and mortar, thus forming a homogeneous mass with the wall. Use tight cement mortar joints for backing.

10. ANCHORS. No anchors will be furnished unless specially mentioned in the specifications, or where we do our own setting.

11. CONSTRUCTIONAL IRON. Such iron will not be supplied, except when specially mentioned in the specifications.

12. FINISH. If not otherwise instructed, we will use a light vertical drove finish, about eight lines to the inch and slightly irregular on all surfaces, except on ornaments and backgrounds of same.

13. LAP JOINTS. If not otherwise instructed, we shall make lap joints for all sills and coping, for all washes more than three (3) inches wide. For enameled ware we-use raised joints. ’

- 14, TRANSOM BARS of small cross-section and over 24 inches long must be jointed, and ought to have iron supports.

15. RAILS for balustrades will be made to receive continuous steel of suitable shape and size.

16. DOWN SPOUTS. We will cut no holes for down spouts or conductors, except where shape, dimensions, and locations of such fixtures be given, and will allow one-half inch all around them for expansion by frost.

17. GUTTERS. We make gutter moldings of uniform cross-section ; the pitch for metal gutter is to be formed by furring or cementing. Terra Cotta Gutters without a lining are not safe.

Information Required for Manufacturing.

18. FIGURES. We need plans, elevations, and sections, with complete lines of figured dimensions in all directions. Give measure- ments on wall line. Color out Terra Cotta on elevations.

19. DETAILS. Please state whether you will furnish full size details.

20. RETURNS.. Where members return around side or rear, such returns should be shown and figured.

21. BRICK WORK. Send sample of brick, or dimensions of same. Give thickness of mortar joints. Remember that all except con- tinuous brick piers are determined by size of brick used. Give full size detail of molded brick where in contact with Terra Cotta. Give pro- jection of brick corbels.

22. OPENINGS. Give sizes, radii, and reveals. Where moldings, imposts, bases, or caps, return against frame, show how to finish against staff bead.

23. CIRCULAR BAYS. Give radii, chord, sizes of piers, openings and reveals. Say whether the frames are straight or circular in plan.

24. BAY WINDOWS. Give figures to determine angles.

25. COPING. Give thickness of walls.

26. GABLES. Establish pitch by figures.

27. CHIMNEYS. Give outside size, plan of flues and thickness of walls.

’ 28. IRON LINTELS. Where these are used to support the Terra Cotta give section of iron and exact position by figures.

29. REIGLES. Show where reigles for metal flashing shall be cut.

30. COLOR. . We have on hand a large variety of samples of standard colors, and many of enameled, and will forward samples for examination on application. If possible select color from such samples, and give us the number of same. When special colors are to be matched, we may require extra time for experimenting. Where more than one color is used, distinguish them in coloring elevation.

Skeleton Construction.

We shall be pleased to give clients all possible information as to Terra Cotta in connection with such construction, and will assume respon- sibility for work carried out according to our suggestions. Please remember that SHOP DRAWINGS of steel must be furnished before we can proceed with the work. These drawings to include framing plans, column drawings showing brackets that engage the Terra Cotta, and

spandrel sections showing sizes of iron and giving location in figures. Pages 53, 55, 57, 59, 61, 63, ard 65 of this catalogue contain much information bearing on this construction. :
