Could someone point me in the direction where I can find out more about these houses? Since I'm in Iowa, perhaps my house came from this mail- order source. I don't seem to find anything on them. Thanks, Linda

here are some links:

The Davenport Public Library has a short history on Gordon-VanTine and a few of their catalogs. I have most of their catalogs and could look at a picture of the house. You can email the pic to dpwolicki@ameritech.net or mail to Dale Wolicki, 59 North Washington, Oxford, Michigan 48371

Thanks Dale, I've emailed you some pictures. I have LOTs more if you need to see anything specific. Linda
