Description:
At the beginning of the 20th century, the Radford Architectural Company of Chicago advertised designs for attractive and economical homes in a catalog for prospective home builders. This volume reprints their rare 1909 catalog, which featured illustrations and floor plans for 100 houses. Designs for a wide variety of homes are presented, ranging from simple three-room bungalows to elaborate 10- or 12-room structures with sitting rooms, libraries, parlors, and wraparound porches. Restorers of old houses, preservationists, and students of American architectural history will welcome this affordable archive of authentic century-old house plans. Present-day homeowners will delight in browsing through a book that may include a mirror image of their home or other residences in the neighborhood.
