Record
The one bracket in this axis that travels without adjustment, because the dates are the same everywhere the wars were. The US decade labels - Jazz Age, Depression era - are sub-spans and are not carried as equivalents. This is where an Art Deco building of the period sits; the style claim is separate and lives on STYLE.
