The old frame does exist. The spire is a wonderful example of its
type - it is very finely tapered. It looks exactly "angled" on all
sides from the base to the top - which means it is not! (Is it
an "antithesis", or some such word that describes the fact that the
spire looks to the observer to have exactly straight sides towards the
point, but does not as straight sides would look wrong due to paralax
error(?)).
