The years between the beginning of the 20th century and the start of WWI formed a period of astounding American architectural creativity and growth. To aid architects, carpenters and builders, the Radford Architectural Company of Chicago issued a portfolio of building details in scaled and measured drawings that conformed to the new style of domestic design. This unabridged and unaltered reprint of the rare 1911 publication offers today's builders and restorers many vintage, authentic measured and scaled drawings that would otherwise be unavailable. An excellent, influential and highly practical primary source from one of America's most creative and enduring architectural periods.
