Book "The First Hundred: Recording a Century of Growth and Service" by Philip Meredith Allen, documenting the history of the Germantown Mutual Fire Insurance Company, 1843-1943. Includes a discussion of the history of the company, and the various buildings it has occupied over the years, including the old insurance company building at 5521 Germantown Avenue (demolished circa 1959), and the Fromberger-Harkness House- home of the GHS- which, ironically, they would not occupy until 10 years after the book was published.
