Pleasing detailed depictions of 1920s ints/exts
10 April 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Hard to believe that a catalogue of millwoork should be so compelling and warrant frequent rereading. This volume is more than a useful reference for a refurbisher/restorer. It's a beautiful drawn/photographed view into the everyday life of comfortable middle-class homelife during the 1920s. Besides being of use to those of us who live in homes from the '20s, this book also is of use to any social historian or student of American culture.
I only wish that the specs for some of these items, like the walls of kitchen cabinets, or the telephone niches, were more detailed so that they could be used as building patterns.
Thank you for this high-quality reprint!

Requested Christmas Gift
22 Dec 2007
Format:Paperback
The item was requested as a Christmas gift. My son-in-law is in the remodeling business and it was my daughter who gave me the gift request.
Apparently, my son-in-law had been looking at the book for his personal use.
