- "The red hairs in McKim's head were getting fewer indeed, but, like the Sibylline Leaves, the remaining ones became the more potent."  https://archive.org/stream/lifeandtimesofch010849mbp/lifeandtimesofch010849mbp_djvu.txt

- "The hair at least remained and he [A. Saint-Gaudens], Charles McKim and Stanford White thought and spoke of themselves as 'the three redheads'."  https://books.google.it/

- "... with blue eyes, a drooping mustache and reddish hair already fleeing his prominent forehead."  https://books.google.it/
