              <text>Photograph caption dated February 23, 1962 reads "Television actress Sybil (sic) Collier enhances the attractiveness of this colonial dough box similar to the type used by the early colonists to store dough. These items have been converted to numerous uses in modern homes. They make handy sewing and knitting boxes, bed stands or end tables. The boxes are easy to build, and the colonial-style legs are sold by dealers everywhere. To obtain the full-size colonial dough box pattern, Number 280, send 75 cents by coin, check or money order to Steve Ellingson, Valley Times TODAY Pattern Dept., P.O. Box 2383, Van Nuys, Calif.</text>

              <text>In 1948, newspaper columnist Steve Ellingson had an idea. Watching his wife sew one day, he wondered if the concept of sewing patterns could be adapted to woodworking. Why not make full-size, traceable patterns for complex or curved project parts which could take some of the difficulty out of project building? So he drafted the first project and launched U-Bild Woodworking Plans. Ellingson enlisted television stars and other celebrities to help sell his product. Today, more than 60 years later, U-Bild is still selling essentially the same product Ellingson first developed.</text>
