The Rarely Seen Interior of the Carson Mansion 

It would be nice if many breakfast restaurants looked like this. Or bigger

Truly ❤

I love a keyhole arch! Tbh I am a fan of barrel, gothic, basically any interesting archway. I think it's a subtle way to add some fun whimsy.

You could not build a house like this today. It would be impossible to find the artisans to do such elaborate carving and decorative art work. This house goes way beyond Victorian surrealism, a real gem.

It’s crazy awesome

lol

There is one very similar in my home town in Oregon called the Flavel house. It's almost as lovely as this one.

I grew up in Eureka, California and this is a beautiful building. There is another house near the Carson home about a block or so away that is called The Pink Lady. If my memory is correct Carson lived there while his home was being built. There are a lot of Victorian homes there, many have been restored beautifully.

Yay🎉

So lucky!!

Who is the club that owns it, members only etc?

@@brianbrian4317 He mentions it in the video. The Ingomar Club.

Milton Bradley, 2,000 pieces.

Curious: I once had one too. I never assembled it, and after several years it disappeared like so many other things that eventually do if you forget you have them. If I could find another, I'd definitely assemble it, frame it and hang it. That was my original intent.

@@jasonwomack4064 That sounds about right. :)

@@fifty9forty3 I wish I still had mine. It was fun to put together, and it was very pretty. But, a friend, thinking it was a picture, picked it up and pieces went everywhere - even down the floor vent. My fault for not having said something before, but it put an end to my puzzle solving days. :)

@@curiousworld7912: I Googled the Carson mansion after seeing this video and found several for sale ranging from about $40.00. It is a matter then, of deciding which angle of the photo you'd want. Just a thought.

I live in Sacramento and have been in both of these house vary cool

@@plantguy3346 I'm in Roseville and have too, I worked for Weinstocks for years and we had a seminar at the old Morys Place that became the youth hostal. I guess Mory had owned the old " Clark Booth and Yardley funeral home that was there most of the 20th century LoL

Queen Anne, not Victorian

@@onesunnyday5699 it's both

Especially ancient redwood ones. That picture of all those men cutting down that gigantic redwood tree was startling.

My my 3x great-grandfather and great grandfather we're in the Michigan lumbering business having many sawmills. Their goal was 3,000 acres a winter weather permitting. I have all the records from their time in business, from 1812 to early 1870s. It put people to work otherwise May starve for the winter, it was literally a mobile city through the forest. Housing the men feeding the men and doctoring the men. They even employed native Americans.The country was young and growing and the wood was needed. Also in the same time. They ran a fur company and dealt with the American Fur company Through their hard work and sacrifices my current family has had a very easy time of things, I guess because nobody hasn't been an idiot with money . Do I feel guilty about their line of work? No not at all, I feel very proud of my ancestors and what they carved out of this country. And to add with the money they were making they brought education back to their home base, they built the first school and paid for the teachers for 40 years.

Your viewpoint is absolutely correct.

Good for you! I would’ve done the same 👍
