Searching for information, books, original research, etc. on Vitrolite and
Carrara pigmented structural glass.  Extremely popular for store fronts in
the 1920's, 30's, and 40's.  Commonly found on Art Deco-style buildings.
I'm especially interested in suppliers of the stuff (yes, I know that it
isn't made any more), care of, preservation of, and replacement of such
material.  Primary sources especially appreciated, including advertisements
and production/sales literature.  I'm also extremely interested in its use
in historic movie theatres.  I already have a copy of Preservation Brief
#12.

Thanks for any help you all can provide,

Chris ^V^
