Plan book for structures residential, commercial, or otherwise. The plan book is split into four sections: I. Bungalows, Camps, etc.; II. Wood Private Garages; III. Metal Private Garages; and IV. Hangars, All Steel, Public Garages, and Commercial Buildings. Most listings are accompanied by a photographic print of the completed structure, along with the design number and dimensions. Some listings are accompanied by testimonials from local firms, some have floor plans (if applicable), and some have brief descriptions including key features of the structure. The supplement focuses on garages, dwellings, and other steel buildings with listings similar to those in the larger catalog. The correspondence is addressed to Charles M. Ainsworth from the company regarding requests for construction of a steel garage and price estimates. The insert is a price list for garages separated by type.
