Riassunto

Excerpt from The Standard Fire Insurance Policy: New York Form-Operative Since May 1, 1887; Issued by Fire Insurance Companies in the United States, Excepting Where Legislatures Have Made Special Forms, Viz., Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire

The value of a Standard Form of Policy to the insured lies chiefly in the fact that now there is only one form of policy used in a state by all Com panics, instead of numerous conflicting forms issued by many companies.
