My New Purchase - The 1950's House

This is a cute vintage house that I purchased from ebay.  Apparently it was made by a carpenter from plans in the 1960s for his daughter and has recently been brought down from the attic.  I plan to rescue it and make it shine again in 1950s style.  The house is 1/16th scale as are most vintage houses.


\Paper flaking off, door missing.  I love the paper in the downstairs room, so if possible I'd like to save it.



Garage door missing, back door missing and several windows.


 Roof hatch needs replacing and I have one set of railings from some part of the house.


More doors and windows missing.

Overall though, it's beautifully made and I think will be gorgeous when rescued.
