Scope and content
Partial view of kitchen. Unusual folding doors separate the kitchen from other living quarters in this photograph taken probably in late fall, 1951. Kitchen cabinets appear to be made of wood with some handles placed at a slant. A breakfast nook is barely visible with table and seat. The floor appears to be made of linoleum. An ad in the 1-20-52 News Tribune indicates that this kitchen appeared in Rowland Construction Company's new homes built in the city's southend. For slightly less than $10,000 a buyer could live in a beautiful new seven room home, including modern kitchen and Duratile bath, with attached garage and forced air heat. (TNT 1-20-52, C-16)
