[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3882300, member: 41653"] In the 60s the big thing was "wall to wall carpeting". It was the style, just like barn doors and wood plank covered walls a few years ago. My parents did the same thing in the living room and dining room of the house in which I grew up. Dad inherited a few hundred dollars in ~1964, Mom wanted WTW carpet. I remember the carpet installer sewing the seam of the carpet pieces together. Big hooked needle, and thread the match the pile of the carpet. Flooring just like in pic #2, covered in light green carpet. [/QUOTE]
