Thanks very much, I'm really enjoying this house because its been my dream to own a 1920s house that had all of its original details in it yet and being able to restore the home back to its former glory along the way.
The interesting part about this house was that it still had its original Gravity Furnace in the basement when I moved in, which was converted over to gas in 1957, and the fun part was that when I was tearing out the old masonite board ceiling in the basement on the "finished" side I uncovered old utility company receipts from 1957 (when the furnace whas converted from coal to gas) that were from the original owners of the house!
