Even my teenagers loved this book...
This is a catalogue full of fixtures - plumbing, electrical andmechanical items from the 1910's.

Doors, windows, newel posts, fireplace mantels, toilets, sinks, light fixtures, bathtubs, electrical switches, anything that was needed to build an old house is listed in this book. ...

Nice book
Dover Publishing (God bless 'em) reprinted the 1926 Sears Modern Homes catalog many years ago and that reprint (apparently) enjoyed quite a bit of success. And that book - the 1926 reprint - was one of the books that turned me on to Sears Homes. This is another reprint of a Sears Modern Homes catalog, specifically the 1932 catalog. In their description, Dover calls it a "rare" catalog and ...
