Scope and content
The family dog posed outside the exterior of a new ranch block home. The home, nestled in the northwest evergreens, displayed lots of windows to let in the light and a single car garage.Photo ordered by Holroyd Co., manufacturer of concrete blocks, at 5047 S. Washington, Tacoma. As construction boomed, and wood became scarcer, even in the Northwest, concrete became a common construction material. Holyroyd manufactured a product that was economical and versatile, coming in a variety of colors and textures.
