Ah, just so--the Russell drawings mention it was resided.I'd guess the original
shiplap siding was either red or grey, the most likely choices.One does doubt
it was the cream of the pilot model; white might be possible, althoughthat
tended to be a bit more expensive for so much area (although come to think of
it,the feedmills in my hometown of Attica were two out of three white).I've
often thought of using some of the old Walthers printed brick paper to
representthat very common cheap residing on structures--it looks as realistic
or unrealisticas the prototype.
