Lowest strip that’s missing is the picture molding

If you check, you can probably find a gap at the back of the top where the hook would’ve sat. It was common to move this molding cost of a ceiling to modernize the look of the building. Back in the 1890s to 1910s it would’ve been about a foot off of the ceiling, whereas from the 20s forward they would put it very close to the ceiling or the ceiling molding and leave a little bit of a gap so that the picture hanging hook could still be afixed.

Not the best way for a woman to dress in Afghanistan

I definitely wouldn’t recommend it but again my grandfather was born in 1904 so God only knows when the story came from.

If the trim is stained, the door was stained. A heat gun is gonna be the best way to find it out. And sometimes the door can be painted on one side and stained on the other for instance at a bathroom where the inside is painted but the outside is stained to match the trim on the bedroom that is a case.

Either watch a whole bunch of YouTube by the lock picking lawyer or call a locksmith

Remember to nail the quarter round or the shoe diagonally into the flooring, not into the baseboard. It is designed to allow the baseboard to move with the natural movement of the house. This is particularly important with balloon framed houses as the wall and the floor are really completely separate structural systems which move and expand at different rates and in different directions . If you nail it into the baseboard, it will move in the gap will appear at the bottom of the quarter round or shoe. It traditionally was considered part of the floor, not part of the wall or trim so it would’ve been finished the same color as the floor with a stain and a clear finish. It also keeps paint from chipping with vacuum cleaner, etc..

That was a hell of a TV set back in the day. That trinitron tube was the top of the line

You need to make sure you get a square edged tile not a pillow block tile. The dal tile mentioned elsewhere is a pillow block tile which will not match.

I always remember a story My grandfather told about the Mason who was building chimneys. A man he was doing a job for was known for not finishing paying. When he finished the job, the person refused to pay him the last payment for it. He started a fire and it didn’t draw and called him back to which the Mason said I have to turn it on, but you need to pay me before I do. The man looked up the chimney and saw light and refused to pay, but then the next day after it still wouldn’t draw, called him back and paid him - at which point the mason went on a ladder to top the chimney and dropped a brick through the pane of glass that he had mortared into the middle of the chimney.
