The Bilt-Well Millwork Catalogs were published by Carr-Cullen Co. in Minneapolis. Representing all manor of doors, windows, cabinetry, and other wood work common to American homes from about 1910–1940. The catalog introduction states:
"When you say a house is English, or Colonial, or Modern—when you speak of a home as hospitable, or cold, or cozy—when you describe the dwelling, your words are influenced and largely by the millwork, both exterior and interior.
And today, with build-in equipment at so high a state of development, you may call a home convenient and easy to keep—or the opposite—depending upon the built-in features. More important now than ever before has the selection millwork thus become.
A home may be brick, wood, stone, or stucco, it may be a compact two-story structure or a spreading one-floor bungalow as the owner may choose, but the beauty and convenience of that home will be largely determined by the selection of the millwork."
"Bilt-Well" Millwork--the choice of the discriminating builder.
You will be able to easily recreate interior and exterior doors, windows, stairs, fireplaces, cabinets, wood ceilings and wood trim for this time period. An excellent resource for home renovators to achieve an authentic look, and woodworkers can use the diagrams for inspiration to recreate beautiful millwork right in their workshop.
