On back: "NEW LOOK ON MONTGOMERY STREET--The $1,100,000 'face-lifting' of the 13-story building housing Crocker-Anglo National Bank's administrative headquarters and 1 Montgomery Street office at the gateway to San Francisco's financial district was officially completed today. Believed to be one of the most extensive refacing projects ever attempted on a structure in the United States, the mammoth construction job initially required the removal of one million pounds of Indiana limestone from the building's exterior. After the limestone was removed, the Crocker-Anglo structure was faced with attractive, reddish-brown, glazed terra cotta.
