Descripción

"Home Owner's Annual" was edited by V. D. Angerman, Warren Baker, and Elizabeth Wolf, and published in 1944 by "Science and Mechanics Magazine". the book contains 31 do-it-yourself projects for the house, garden and general home landscape. projects include carpentry and masonry activities. It is a marvelous time capsule into the nineteen-forties - and most of these projects can still be done. Materials and the such may have to be modified to meet present criteria. The book has lots of photographs, line drawings and instructive diagrams. I love the picture on the cover, it conjures a bit of nostalgia. ************************************ TITLE : Home Owner's Annual / EDITORS : V. D.
