Parabiographies
Reel and Rudder Club
Purcell and Feick
Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota 1908
Parabiographies entry, Volume for 1908
Text by William Gray Purcell
Job Date (in Parabiographies entry): May 23, 1908.
An interesting and quite organic project. A kind of summer dormitory.
One of our early examples of broad eaves - low pitched roofs and corner windows.
[Annotation on draft: The Reel and Rudder Club now appears as a more interesting minor adventure than I had originally assumed. Never photographed. Easily found and identified - at Cottage Wood - Lake Minnetonka...also did two other cottages on this point. (There is a map drawn by WGP)].
