I'm restoring a greystone and would like to give it a "classic" exterior. I have been having a hard time finding historical pictures with any greystones in the background to use as a reference. Sadly most of these homes have been changed over the years and it is very rare to see one with original fixtures, doors, etc. Any ideas?
