"Home" Models
Seventy-five original architec
tural models of the "History of the
`Home," valued at $60,000 have
been presented to the College by
the - WPA Museum Extension Pro
ject in Pittsburgh. •
The models were used as pat
terns to make plaster casts which
were distributed to public institu
tions throughout Pennsylvania.
This work was discontinued, how
ever, when the government cur
tailed WPA activities in order to
expand defense production.
According to Fred I. Shoemaker,
superintendent of the Museum Ex
tension Project, about 500 man
hours of work were required to
make each of the models. He said
that the WPA research department
worked at the Carnegie Library in
Pittsburgh, the library of the Un
iVersity of Pittsburgh, and also ob
tained information from foreign
libraries "so that the models could
be reproduced correctly."' -
The collection was presented to
the College through T. C. Boerlin,
supetwisor of technical school cen
ters in extension, and was accepted
by Dean Harry P. Hammond of the
School of. Engineering.
Countries represented -by models
of their architecture include the
United States, England, France,
Italy, Gerrriany, Turkey, 'Mexico,
Spain, Holland, Sumatra, Borneo,
and :Mesopotamia.
