Modern miniatures: the midweek edition

I stumbled across the above image ("Little Girl Looking Into a Modern Doll House Being Sold at F.A.O. Schwarz") from December 9, 1940 at Allposters.com while doing some random googling yesterday: 58 years to the day after it was first taken. I've never seen this model house before and think it's quite gorgeous. Print prices start at US$77... Also gorgeous is Sarah's website showcasing her collection of vintage houses, including an enviable range of Triangs (she has the very rare Jenny's Home!) and other similar-era houses.

Great stuff and well worth a visit!
