Wraps
Grand Rapids, Michigan
Grand Rapids, Michigan: Togan-Stiles, Inc.. Wraps. Very Good. Unusual architectural trade catalogue, "presented to you by an institution that devotes one entire branch of its plant exclusively to the manufacture of Factory-made Schoolhouses." Schoolhouses on offer are one to four rooms. With photo images of the designs, and also a page detailing "School Specifications". The latter part of the catalogue -- about half, is given over to churches, gyms and community centers, which outwardly are very similar to the schoolhouse models shown. Scarce -- no copies listed on OCLC First Search. Two entries for an unrelated catalogue issued by Togan-Stiles -- the company also did garages, summer cottages, structures for industrial use, etc. And we believe, a rare sort of catalogue product. 4to. 28 by 21.5 cm. 31 pp. Condition: light soiling of the heavy card wraps. Center leaf -- four pages -- loose from rusty staples which hold the brochure together. Pages are clean.
