[ARCHITECTURE]. WRIGHT, Frank Lloyd (1867-1959). Buildings, Plans, and Designs. With a foreword by architect William Wesley Peters. New York: Horizon Press, 1963. Elephant folio. 100 monochrome plates, loose as issued. With the original text volume in publisher's staple-bound wrappers. Original portfolio with ties. FIRST AMERICAN EDITION, LIMITED ISSUE, number 4B of 2,600 copies based on Wright's influential "Wasmuth Portfolio," which was originally published in Berlin in 1910. The majority of these Berlin sets were destroyed in a fire at Taliesin on 15 August 1914, with only a few hundred damaged copies surviving. This first English-language edition is nearly identical but with several changes to the plates and the omission of Wright's embossed stamp.

Condition

Minor rubbing to booklet, light rubbing to portfolio. A fine copy, better than usually seen.
