Our original illustration features the iconic Coleman's Fireproof Depository building in Liverpool, UK. It was built at a time when fires would break out relatively easily in industrial cities.
It was set on fire in the Liverpool riots of 1981 and left empty afterwards.
“WAREHOUSING. The Depository is thoroughly FIREPROOF, having been specially erected for the Storage of Furniture, Musical Instruments, Pictures, Wines, Carriages, and Luggage and is open for inspection daily, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Sundays excepted). SEPARATE LOCK UP ROOMS. SPECIAL ROOM FOR PIANOS. STRONG ROOM FOR PLATE, DEED BOXES, &c.”
