Will Rossiter's Original Talkalogues by American Jokers
American wit and humor
We have just published a new book, with above title, containing 150
up-to-date plans of houses, costing from $500 to $18,000, which anyone
thinking of building a house should have if they wish to save money and
also get the latest and best ideas of a practical architect and eminent
designer and writer on common-sense, practical and convenient dwelling
houses for industrial Americans, homes for co-operative builders,
investors and everybody desiring to build, own or live in Model Homes of
low and medium cost. These plans are not old plans, but every one is
up-to-date (1906), and if you are thinking of building a house you will
save many times the cost of this book by getting it and studying up the
designs. We are certain you will find something in it which will suit
you. It also gives prices of working plans at about one-half the regular
prices, and many hints and helps to all who desire to build. 160 large
octavo pages. Price, paper cover, $1.00; bound in cloth, $1.50. Sent by
mail, postpaid, to any address on receipt of price. Address all orders
to
