Description: Vintage 1920s Designs Homes Bungalows 115 Floor Plans GORDON HOMES Lumber Co Ohio Very Rare original antique softcover home plan book . . . one of the harder brands to find – I doubt you can find another one of these!This book is undated, but I would guess it is from the 1920s based on the home designs - and possibly from the 1910s. Illustrated with color and black & white illustrations of the homes and floor plans and some descriptive material. Published by Gordon Lumber Company with Lumber yards in Ohio State. The company wanted to sell you the house plans and then they wanted you to purchase the lumber from them! Quality illustrations and designs . . . I show you many examples of the designs . . . approximately 115 different designs . . . The American bungalow did not appear until around 1905. First built in Southern California, where most landmark examples are found, this style dominated U.S. home architecture until 1930. 8 1/2” x 11 1/4” with 112 pages Interesting Company History from the web: FREMONT, Ohio — Started in 1868 by Ohio settler Washington Gordon, this year Gordon Lumber celebrates 150 years of building communities throughout Ohio and Michigan.
