Printing Details
First edition, second impression. Hardback, bound in the original brown cloth with yellow printed titling to spine and upper board. 28.5 × 20.5cm, 56pp + plates.
This copy was owned by a New Zealand-born architect, Murray J Wren, who has annotated throughout, and hand-drawn a bookplate in to the front pastedown. He served in the Navy in the Second World War, and has written out the places his service took him to.
This book is the text of four lectures given by Frank Lloyd Wright to the Royal Institute of British Architects in London in May 1939. The text of the four lectures is followed by photographic plates and architectural plans.
Condition
A good reading copy. The cloth is rubbed and some of the yellow titling is wearing off. The book has been annotated throughout by Murray Wren but this does not affect the text. The pages a little creased in places and the binding secure but a little strained.
