Dutch Boy Medallion |
The Silicon Underground has post about the history of the National Lead company and some its trials and tribulations over pollution. It's a curious story that got me looking for pictures and I found a couple I liked.
Lead oxide used to be commonly used in making white paint. Dutch Boy Paint was founded by National Lead, hence the above medallion.

Objectively there is nothing special about this building, just a plain ordinary building. Well, except for the jaggies, which appealed to me for some reason. Kind of reminds me of Pixels, or Legos.
I didn't know National Lead also made Babbitt.
