The set includes numerous versions of working drawings for an alteration & addition project, probably for The Inn at Alden Park restaurant. No "architects" name is given, and W.A. Clarke Assoc. is noted in interior design drawings, cataloged separately as a Client, which suggests a firm dealing directly with contracted service. The "A1-A2" drawings, usually the design drawings, carry the signature & seal, in some sets, for Charles Peshek, Jr. registered professional engineer, #4599-E, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Many sets carry an addition to the title block "Stewart A. Jellett Co., conculting engineers, 12 South 12 Street, Phila., 7, Pa." and a number "SAJ No. 6198", bottom left on there drawings.

Moss, registered professional engineer, no. 4904?, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, for the plumbing diagram, and Thomas Culver Lightfoot, registered professional engineer, no. 6452, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the mechanical & electrical drawings.
