Interesting book showcasing American interior design, with useful photography and text published just before America’s entry into WWII:
“Take away the bottles and lower the bar slightly, and you have here a neat and compact reception-room for the office of a physician or an attorney, or, for that matter, of practically any executive. Leave it as it is, and you have a pleasant pattern for a private bar in a modern home where anything resembling a garish night-club or an English tap-room would be inappropriate or undesirable.”
