My wife and I went to our Royal Bank manager in Kerrisdale, to suggest a display, to illustrate exterior home improvements. A model house built in a 1/2" = 1 foot scale, of an "old" home, split into two. One half showing old roof and wall shingles, and the other half showing new stucco, fascias & stone. The idea was to promote interest with homeowners, in home improvements loans. We took a model to head office in Vancouver and came away with a two year contract to build 4 models, which were rented, and rotated each month, to most of the Royal Bank Branches in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, over a two year period. That brought us in a cool $100.00 per month, steady, and considering our own house rent was only $150.00 a month at that time, it was a great deal for us. We built the 4 models in 3 weeks, and sold the models off, at the end of the rental agreement. |
