Photograph appears with the headline, ""Times" Prize Home at the Los Angeles National Housing Exposition," Los Angeles Times, 26 May 1935: G8.
The bedroom displays a rotund chair beside a stool positioned in front of the dressing table. The dressing table has two identical lamps and a mirror hanging on the wall. A rod runs across the ceiling that holds draperies for covering the wall. A glass door with draperies is to the right of the dressing table.
$10,000 model house, furnished in the modern manner, and with a flexibility of room arrangements which has won wide commendation. A unitype steel frame is used, and the ravages of termites and other destructive elements have been guarded against. A detailed description of the furnishings will be found in the Real Estate Section today. Left, above, living terrace.
