Pleasing detailed depictions of 1920s ints/exts, April 10 2008

This review is from: Universal Millwork Catalog, 1927: Over 500 Designs for Doors, Windows, Stairways, Cabinets and Other Woodwork (Paperback)
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!

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.
