Scope and content
Exterior of home at 2220 No. Mason Ave. ordered by John Raetz. The bungalow style home is two story with a possible attic room, a latticed front porch and a rear first floor laundry or utility room. The home is listed as vacant in the 1956 City Directory. It is not listed at all in the 1957 directory and is replaced by a 2214 No. Mason Ave. occupied by Mr. Raetz. An ad in the Tacoma News Tribune used this picture to advertise the house for sale and removal from its present location. The price was $1500.00 "as is" and stated that the home was well built and should easily moved without the shifting of timbers or plaster. (TNT 3/18/1956, pg B-15) TPL-9201
