Somehow, I can't let go of the idea that the Customliner crumbled into obscurity six years ago. Is there no one but me who sees some historical value in the life of one prefab home?
Well, maybe.
At any rate, my next step is to add some pictures to this humble blog. At best, maybe I can find some pictures of the Customliner under construction in the D.C. Armory. At least, perhaps some pictures of comparable homes and events in the D.C. area around the same time.
I've already spoken to the photograph librarian at the D.C. Public Library. She thinks they might have some photos of the 1955 Washington Home Show in their collection. She suggested I contact her after the holidays to arrange an appointment.
Suggestions from readers are also welcome!
