My 2018 "Millionaire's Row" Mantle Putz.

Post by **Pete R.Oehmen** » Sun Feb 10, 2019 3:12 pm

Sorry I'm late but it's been a very busy Putz House season. I'm just getting around to dismantling this years display. (Love the pun). Euclid Avenue’s “Millionaires’ Row” was home to some of the nation’s most powerful and influential industrialists, including John D. Rockefeller. Around the turn of the twentieth century, Baedeker’s Travel Guide dubbed Euclid Avenue the “Showplace of America” for its beautiful elm-lined sidewalks and ornate mansions situated amid lavish gardens. The concentration of wealth was unparalleled, with accounts at the time comparing it to the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris. Hope you enjoy... Pete

Howard, glad you caught this post. It was a fun mantle to work on. I'm afraid I might not have a putz scene this year because I did a putz history lecture at our local history museum and used up all my trees and people. LOL Here are a couple of pictures of my time in front of the audience, promoting the love of our hobby.
