Indeed - the "Asbestolith" is a great find! Keep up that great work. Very much appreciate your keen eye for oddities and cityscapes...

HEY! This is my great-grandpa's flooring company he started and that my uncle now owns!! Very cool that I found it on here.

Hey Emily. Do you have any literature on the history of the Asbestolith company?

Posted by: Mark Durham at March 14, 2007 05:57 PM

No, I don't own any of the literature of the history of Asbestolith. I know a little about it, though. Sorry I'm not much help! Why are you interested in Asbestolith, if I may ask?
