Fire-marks
 Websites presented in alphabetical order Firemarks 
 Search or browse this commercially-oriented site for hundreds of high-quality photographs of firemarks, which were emblems attached to buildings by insurance companies to indicate that the buildings were insured against fire damage. The practice began in London in the late 17th century and "carried on for two hundred and fifty years." http://www.firemarks.co.uk/ Topics: Architecture, Consumer Research & Advocacy, Finance, History By Place, Photograph Collections, Photograph Collections: Regional Last updated Jun 17, 2003 |
