CANTIGNY

Jul 12, 2009
Issue 619

Last night we reported on Tony Topps of Crystal Lake, Illinois visit to a place called CANTIGNY in Wheaton, Illinois, and his discovery of some Steuben architectural glass. Scott Hansen reports

CANTIGNY is the country home of Robert R. McCormick, former editor and publisher of the Chicago Tribune, the “World’s Greatest Newspaper.” More information is available at www.cantigny.org.

Tony Topps responds
If you go to the link for the lower level of the house (on the web site), go to the gold theater where there is a door detail pictured. It has the matte finish Steuben insert. It also talks about the glass block walls. I an not sure they know these are Steuben.

Maybe someone else has visited CANTIGNY and can add more information.
