To add to what Gothichome posted, here's sections of a 1919 Montgomery Ward paint catalog I have.

I've also got a bigger Sears Roebuck paint catalog from a few years earlier that I haven't put on the site yet.

Great home! Love the green counters and the "dining" room. Please post more pics when you have time.

Beautiful house, and you've done some great work. I love the casements and leaded glass, and I see some transoms, too, which I really like.

Thanks, awomanwithahammer! I'm happy with the way the leaded glass turned out. We found someone who restores church stained glass and she took on the project... it was pretty cold drafty in here for the two months it took though! :)

I just tried to post pics of the "kill room" , but the file size is too large. Aw well.
Two more photos... one of the "sunroom", and another of the exterior of the house before the (awful) shutters... both photos were taken by a previous owner and generously gifted to me :)

Thanks, Diane!
The plan is to remove them this summer, patch the drill holes, and repaint.
