click on the words "This Booklet"
The centerfold shows everything! Like the front coverings are removed from top to bottom!
You can see everything!
I can't believe this was an exhibit at the 1904 St Louis Worlds Fair
I didn't think they would allow someone to remove that much covering for public display in those days.
You can even see her "coal chute". (bottom right)
WOW!
I hope @Erin Holohan Haskell doesn't flag this post for it's content

I saw the stairway pattern in a late 19th century townhouse in Boston's Back Bay, still operating around 2010.
Most homes in that area were built with coal fireplaces and kitchen ranges; central heating was added later in most cases in the form of steam, hot water or hot air.

I love all my Rococo rads. Each one is a piece of art in every room. My bedroom one here.
