Treasure 47: Illuminated Central Library
218 To mark the Year of Innovation, Architecture and Design, we are unveiling one of our treasures which relate to the Central Library - a drawing from the Library archive showing what the Central Library might have looked like with an illuminated neon sign.
The drawing was produced by the General Electric Company Ltd and dated 14 March 1939. There is no reference in the Library Committee minutes to this proposal and the installation never went ahead, presumably as World War 2 intervened.
Had it been installed, however, it certainly would have been visible for some distance, glowing at the end of the Terrace! |
