Thx for the info Patrick I have been trying to find out the background on the home for awhile. My grandparents made an offer on the home when it was for sale in the late 40's. If you have a copy of the ad could you send it along on here? Do you remember which publication it was featured in?

I'll look for the ad...it was in one of those architectural magazines from Google Books. The house itself is amazing...too bad they can't build anything like that today.
