The Hubbard Museum combined its acquisitions with the Roycroft
collection of George and Gladys ScheideMantel in the house
they had built (1910) by Roycroft Craftsmen. The garden contains
a fountain base by Catherine Maltwood. The ScheideMantel house
is forest green clapboard and shingle bungalow with a stone
foundation and cozy verandah. The interior has oak floors
and chestnut woodwork. The Godfrey family purchased beautifully
bound and illumined books and original manuscripts which formed
the nucleus of the Elbert Hubbard Library Museum. Soon Roycroft
furniture, copper, and other related items were given to the
village museum.
