Excerpt from The American Architect and Building News, Vol. 16: July-December, 1884 Some of the coats-oi-arms seen over many of the shops in London are made of terra - cotta, and in those, having been properly vitrified in burning, the form is still good, and the exposure to the elements, often for more than a century, has in no way affected the lines.
