Pictograph (1948}, by Adolph Gottlieb. Ink and Brush.

WE ASKED Adolph Gottlieb to drew this Pictograph ·fo help tell PR ·
r&eders whet County Homes is doing about .housing. This is the first of
a series by contemporary artists, ell of whom find it unusual to illustrate
a reel estate advertisement.
THE UNUSUAL, however, is our · business. We sell lend and build
houses: the results are extraordinary in 'that they fit both their surround–
ings end the ideas of their owners to such a satisfactory degree. County
Homes handles all the elements involved in building or reconverting,
from the first plan to the intricacies of home financing. Anyone, wbo .can
afford $150 rent for a New York apartment can buy or build on the
banks of the Hudson, where windows stay clean for months. Land is .
available from V4-acre up. Commuting time: 35 minutes.
RIGHT NOW we are putting nine large estates, ghosts of a past ere,
back into use-dividing them into sites of more reasonable size ,but
avoiding, like a plllgue, the too-familiar horrors suggested by the word
"development." We ere preserving th.e individuality, the · magnificent,
natural landscaping, and the privacy the original owners enjoyed. We went
you to see this work. We should like to show you som._ of the remarkable
houses already complete, and suggest the possibilities in property still
available. Our Tappan Hill office is. a pleasant
.40.
minute drive .•up ·the
Sawmill River Parkway, or we shall be glad to meet you at the Terrytown
Station.
