Heal was progressive and forward-thinking. He encouraged his staff to become employee shareholders, displayed the works of the most avant-garde artists of the time, and commissioned advertising posters from the best graphic designers of the day. Clearly his philosophies tied into his designs and the overall Arts and Crafts design movement. Measures 30 inches wide, 36 inches high and 18.5 inches deep.
