A cast iron birdhouse, signed Miller Iron Co. Providence Rhode Island and dated April 14 1868. This birdhouse is an exact replica of a Victorian home that exists in Roslyn Harbor NY. This is one of four of these bird houses that I have had, two going to two different Long Island Museums, one to the owner of the Roslyn home that this is a replica of and this one which I sold in 1983 and purchased back from the owner. Usually, when these are found, they are missing the steps outside the house which are present here.
The last image is a reprint from the show "The Gothic Revival Style in America, 1830-1870.” The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, 1976.
