Found the attached library of House/Home Magazine, which was a Time-Life industry publication. Lots of ads for built-ins.

......Jamie for sharing this!
I LOVE looking at old magazines - especially those with pictures that show how life was in years gone by.
The site is set up very well and the magazines are easy to read by scrolling down.
Much better than the "magazine reader" format where one has to click to turn "pages."
Now I have a new way to kill time!
Thanks again!!

Interesting magazines. I've looked at a couple - one from '62, and one from '69. They seem a little more focused on the "production" builder (subdivisions), than the custom home market. Some, though certainly not all, of the products look a little on the cheap side.

I could see myself spending way too much time looking at these!

I remember reading a British book on homes from the very early 1970s and it has a chapter on dishwashers that make them sound slightly more complex than MRI scanners. They were very definitely still a niche product in the UK at that stage.
