Every bit of its contents intact . . . not even scorched . . . that's the record of another Shaw-Walker Executive Safe! Surviving the inferno of the Goldstein Building fire and the ad- ded punishment of a two-story fall, the executive safe shown here com- pletely protected the records and other valuables of the Juneau Med- ical and Surgical Clinic. Unshakable proof of the value of Shaw-Walker Certified Protection. With all records preserved, a fire becomes just an incident in the life- time of your business. Where some of the xecords are destroyed, the fire usually means loss of business, loss of prestige, large expenditures in an attempt to rebuild records, and even business failure. You insure against business inter- ruption with Certified Protection! THERE IS NO MYSTERY jabout a Shaw-Walker Safe and why it pro- tects from fire. Heat is sealed out. Interior is entirely enclosed 'in an insulation, which releases moigture P Vi only during the high temperatures of a fire.- This released moisture smothers fire, cools the door joints, moistens the contents, and prevents combustion. It is a good safe be- cause around these major principles of protection are thrown good en- gineering, good manufacturing and good inspection. SHAW-WALKER EXECUTIVE SAFES GIVE YOUR RECORDS CERTIFIED ONE-HOUR FIRE PROTECTION at but little extra cost. They are certified by the Safe Manufacturer's National Association to preserve the contents under ex- posure to severe fire on all sides for at least 60 minutes at a temperature reaching 1700 degrees Farenheit. IF FIRE DESTROYS YOUR OFFICE TONIGHT will your irreplaceable records, books, patients’ history rec- ords, personal papers—your greatest assets beyond good will — be re- duced to ashes. COULD YOU SHOW “PROOF OF LOSS”“? When the insurance com- pany asks for “proof of loss”, will you be able to furnish it, or will the necessary records be among the ashes.
