Columbus made Lustron Homes

Lustron Home in  Sharon Heights or  N. Clintonville

Lustron Preservation  says:

"The homes were available in four exterior colors: Maize Yellow, Dove grey, Surf Blue, and Desert Tan, carefully selected by Howard Ketchum, Inc., described in promotional materials as “one of the nations foremost color experts.”

The Lustron Home pictured IS NOT FOR SALE.   This is the house on E. Kanawha, I believe  it must be the "Surf Blue"  color.  The house is a prettier color in person...   On a list that shows Lustron Homes across the US, the color looks even further from the real thing.

There is a Lustron Home on Weber Rd. too (?) pretty far east. Desert Tan?   Looking at the national list of Lustron Homes it looks like there are two Lustron Homes in Bexley too. 

The porecelain on steel Lustron Homes were "prefab"  houses made in a factory  4200 E. 5th Ave. Columbus Ohio.
