Just got a copy of the May 1999 issue of the Magazine Antiques and it is a great issue to have if you're interested in Kilian Brothers, Schrenkeisen, Jelliff, and Pottier & Stymus.  This is the issue with the Jelliff/Schrenkeisen conundrum.  Of special interest is the P&S article as it has photos of their Modern Gothic furniture from Thomas Alva Edison's house which is unlike any of their pieces that you usually see at auction.
Some photographs of the furniture at Glenmont can be viewed online at the Edison National Historic Site webpage. High res images of of the reception hall and building exterior can be seen at the HABS website; search on "Glenmont".
