New York Herald paper house, 1905


It took me awhile to figure out what I was looking at. At first all I could see were frayed newspaper rectangles with illustrations of a house. But the reverse held some clues. This is copyright 1905, New York Herald. And all the furniture you see here has been glued on to an empty room, based on a floor plan provided by the newspaper. 


All the pots and pans, the tin of salt, the rolling pin and even the cat has been glued into place!


Love the taut sheet on the bed and the window seat...
