It was made to a scale of 1:12 (one inch to the foot) and contains models of products of well known companies of the time. These were either made by the companies themselves, or by specialist modelmakers, such as Twining Models of Northampton , England. The carpets, curtains and furnishings were all copies of the real thing, and even the light fittings were working. In addition, well known writers such as Rudyard Kipling wrote special books which were written and bound in scale size and painters provided miniature pictures. Even the bottles in the wine cellar were filled with the appropriate wines and spirits, and the wheels of motor vehicles were properly spoked. {Link without Title} REFERENCE
