I was in Pittsburgh this past weekend, where our concert band performed at this grand old (1910) building as part of the Association of Concert Bands convention. Most of the building that I saw is heated by some sort of ducted system with very old registers, but I found this American Peerless rad in the Gettysburg Room. Think they need some help with this system?

    Must have been the same crew who "fixed" the rads in Cleveland's Garfield Memorial close to Mr. Moat's grave.--NBC

    Hopefully whatever is in that case likes to be "cooked" on a regular basis...in the winter anyway.
