Store window display near South 9th and Commerce featuring host Arlene Francis of NBC-TV's "Home" show endorsing Douglas Fir Plywood in June, 1956. Free fir plywood do-it-yourself plans as shown on NBC's "Home" television program could be obtained at this particular store. Independent do-it-yourself projects were in vogue and interested parties could obtain ideas for built-ins, outdoor furniture and decorations. Promotional ads are being plastered over a portion of the display window with one man inside the window and others directing the placement. Ordered by the Douglas Fir Plywood Association. ALBUM 7.
