Hi, We just bought an old house, and under a carpet in one of the bedrooms was a “something” — I am not sure what its real name is… It is 6 feet by 8 or 9 feet, and is a fantastic picture / mural. Looks like it is on masonite or some other fiber type board. The “rug” is not attached at all — we can pick it up and move it. It is not gummy at all, seems like just fiberboard, maybe 1/8 of an inch thick. The house was built back around 1900 as a schoolhouse, then sold, dismantled, moved and rebuilt maybe around 1935. The family we bought it from had it since the mid 50′s… I would like to … see if anyone knows anything about it. Thanks! Heck yeah there is more →

Kitty Mommy saw Mr. Bartlett’s vintage Armstrong linoleum floor yesterday – and sent in the very same pink version that’s in place in her master bathroom. You can also see a bit of her pink American Standard toilet. Those of you with vintage inlaid linoleum in good shape – are so very lucky!
