I've seen a number of Lustron houses, but today was my first encounter with a Motohome


One of about 150 manufactured and sold from 1932 to 1937.  Wisconsin's only Motohome is located on South Shore Drive, in the Bay Creek neighborhood.

Close to 3,000 Lustrons (of the 45,000 on order) were built in the U.S. from 1948 to 1950, until the company went into bankruptcy.  5 are located in Madison, 1 in Middleton
