<script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script>That 1906 Sy-Clo toilet looks like the one that was in the house my friends Sam and Sharon were renting when I first knew them (around 1990). That house was built sometime between 1900 and 1910, and the upstairs bathroom still had all the original fixtures.
The church I belong to had Fiberglas drapes in one of the rooms, dating to the 1959 construction of that portion of the building. My mom was in charge of getting them cleaned sometime in the late 60's. She took them to a dry cleaners, and they shredded when cleaning was attempted.
Concrete masonry houses never really caught on much around here, not like in Florida, anyway. Only one I know of in my neighborhood, and it belongs to my friend Marilyn. It was built in 1956, and has brick facing. It is a very quiet home. It has wood floor joists for the first floor and attic, rather than concrete slabs.
I remember seeing Sheila MacRae in the Hollywood fashion show episode of "I Love Lucy", and also in the "Jackie Gleason Show".

We had Fiberglas drapes in the living room at the 1964 house.

Thank you! I wish these bulbs were still sold in grocery stores. Yes modern bulbs are offered in a variety of color temperatures, but the light from these is so soft, hypnotic, delicious and in the moment no modern bulb can replicate the ambiance or atmosphere.
Does anyone know if these were A-19 or A-21 shaped? A-21 bulbs with tint always get me in bear sockets.

My apologies for the lack of clarity here- ceiling mounted lamp holders in laundry areas, garages, closets, attics, mud rooms, furnace rooms, ect. I love what I coined the "gumdrop bulb" look. A bulb with a blue or pinkish coating, preferably A-21 in size. In 2009 the place I moved into had a windowed closet with a GE reveal bulb screwed into the lamp holder. It caught me by surprise and since then I've always liked the look of colored bulbs in these shad-less sockets. Just the thought entering the room and seeing the color sets the feelings for me.

Bare sockets.
Hahaha! Spelling is not my strong point. You can tell I've always been paying attention to whatever is making the meter spin.
