There was so much good commentary about the architecture and especially the sculpture in last week’s post about Anderson Todd’s photos from the tour of modern homes that I was inspired to go back for another look at the slides. There are quite a few interior shots and I can’t tell precisely how many different houses he took pictures of. Here are a couple of kitchens, both very Space Age:

There is a really good chance that my parents’ house was on that tour… The Solomon. House. I am in the process of trying to restore it to its 1957 glory and any color(!) photos would be incredible to have. Is there any chance of seeing the rest of Andy’s slides?
Yes, the Solomon house by Brooks and Brooks was on the April 1957 tour.
