1) “The most influential design source of the last 50 years.”  “The effect of any genius is seldom seen in his own time.  But the case of Frank Lloyd Wright is different...”  Includes portrait by Yousuf Karsh.  (Sweeney 670)

2) “What inspired House Beautiful?  Like most institutions that outlive their originators, House Beautiful was stared as a crusade.  Our birth was influenced by six widely-reprinted sermon-essays entitled ‘The House Beautiful,’ written by William C. Gannett in 1895, and printed in 1896 in a deluxe, edition designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.”  Includes two photographs by Fred Lerner of the cover and inside spread of The House Beautiful.

3) “America Did it First. Frank Lloyd Wright designed this house in 1903. Opposite you’ll see its influence on Modern today...” The caption reads “Home of Mr. And Mrs. T.H. Goodspeed, Grand Rapids, Michigan”. Wright claimed this home as one of his designed, the David M. Amberg House (1909). Amberg was Meyer May's father-in-law.  In Storrer’s early editions he lists it as S.166. A design for the Amberg House was published in the Western Architect of October 1913 under Von Holst's name, with Marion M. Griffin listed as Associate. Also see “Frank Lloyd Wright, His Life and His Architecture” Twombly 1979, Pp 160-2.  Includes three photographs. Original cover price 35c. 9.25 x 12.25.
