    Well, I've found a few photos, finally. We live in a 1958 ranch home. Most of our furniture is antique. These photos were taken several years ago when we were moving in, so the house looks quite stark & bare, and the paint & carpeting are due to the previous owners.

    This furniture is our bedroom set, came from a family friend whose mother bought it in the 1940s. Excuse creepy glowing-eye cat.


    This chair lives in our guest bedroom. I paid $5 for it at an estate sale. The night table I found in an abandoned farm house.


    The radio we paid $40 at a garage sale, it works but we don't use it other than a display piece. Unsure of age. Maybe 1940s?


    The guest bedroom furniture. I bought the set - bed, dresser, chest - for $300 at an antique store about 15 years ago.



    I found this 1950s bullet planter at a garage sale for $5.

    There is some great stuff on here. I live in a early 1960's custom ranch home, but am unable to post photos. Not sure why. Perhaps I am too 'new'. Anyway, if I figure it out, I will post some shots. Thanks all for your pictures!

    Just in case you missed it, at the very top of the 'Display Case' there is a thread called 'How to display pictures.'

    Wow, sartana, I'm turning green.

    How long y'all been in this place? And what's with the cars? Had them long?

    Oh, and by the way ... aren't you thankful that none of the previous owners did anything to compromise its essential 1964 ranchness? I know of a couple of '60s-vintage post-and-beam houses that have had their original floor-to-ceiling windows taken out and filled in with framing and sheathing and siding. Sheesh! That's worse than a waste of money.

    Sartana, the more I look at those photos of your house, the more I like it. Any idea who designed it?
