Notes:

Ballinger log book 4, p. 91 lists photo numbers 4411 & 4471. Photo nos. 4531, 4575, 4595 & 4681 have also been identified with this company, based upon evidence in the photos and visual match with other photos. Photo no. 4531 is an architectural drawing, a perspective rendering of the proposed structure, including the delineator's name "D.E. Sutton". Photo no. 4411 is an architectural drawing, a perspective rendering of a two-story brick building, with stairs to the right. The delineator is given as D.E. Sutton. Photo no. 4471 shows the actual building, same view. Photo no. 4575 appears to be the same building from the opposing side, with a truck at the loading dock showing the Company's name and "Philadelphia". Photo nos. 4595 & 4681 are architectural drawings, variant perspective renderings for a large building, showing the company name either above the entrance or atop the central tower. Sutton is the delineator for both. Location date from local files is unverified, and may not be the same for both structures.
