1920's interior design

How's that for a strange subject heading?
Our homeschool theater group is doing a play set in the the 1920's. I have
ten library books about that time period and can't find one picture of a
typical 1920's living room. It's not the furniture so much, but the wall
treatment that I can't seem to find information about. Would any of you have
any idea how a family in the 1920's would have painted their walls?
Yesterday I went to B & N and looked in some books there. I found some
pictures of that era and it looked like the walls had been done with a
"wooly""--that device that's sheepskin-like and that you daub over fresh
paint--but it's not possible to tell if that's just the way the photograph
looks.
Thanks!

We rent an old, 1912 Edwardian house in Vancouver, B.C. There is very bold
wallpaper behind all of the radiators that was never painted over which was
obviously there before the radiators were installed. The year that was done?
Don't know. But I am curious. In fact I think I will try to find out when the
radiators were installed. If I had to guess maybe the forties.
Our neighbor has restored his house which was built by the same builder in the
same year and he knows a lot more about it. I'll ask.
