1950s Town Plan


1211 - Small House (alt. model)
#5
Here we see the very exciting alternate model for set 1211, a stunning rendition of—a very similar house!

Aside from being basically the same house backwards, the one notable difference from the main model is a pair of 1x3x2 windows instead of one 1x6x2 with shutters. I don't know for sure whether both types were actually included in the set, or if the instructions just show a suggested variation. In any case, the instructions for this model have more than the usual number of discrepancies, even considering the period, but the intent seems clear enough regardless.

Besides the difference in windows, my guess as to the reason for this alternate model is to show how two sets could be combined back-to-back to form a larger house. This goes along with suggestions to place multiple sets in a row to form a business block, or stack a number of houses to form a skyscraper.
