A Ritzy Bird House
Philadelphia- A hobby was responsible for this "feather" hotel. Ernest Huber, butcher, 2872 Orthodox Street, Frankford, PA, out of work for nearly 18 months fashioned the above bird house from 7,000 pieces of wood. He is shown putting on the finishing touches.

Hey Kim,
Not sure if you'll make any money, but I can guarantee you'll have a nice pile of wood to show for it!
