Description: "Mr. Wright Goes to Los Angeles. The architect is unique who can command sustained applause of two or three minutes upon his introduction to an American audience. Such, nevertheless, was the reception given Frank Lloyd Wright by some 2500 people who in January attended the principal public address of the dedication program of the new College of Architecture at the University of Southern California. And while in Los Angeles a celebrity is someone to be looked at, it was evident that this audience had come to hear, rather than just see... In his more serious moments, Wright declared that architecture must be the center line of any indigenous American culture..." Original cover price $0.50. (Sweeney 514)

Description: Book Review: "Frank Lloyd Wright on Architecture, Selected Writings 1894-1940", Edited with an introduction by Frederick Gutheim (265 Pages, Duell, Sloan and Pearce Inc, New York, $3.50) Here in a Red Nine Square volume, that must be opened upon a desk if is to be read with any comfort, are the chronological outburst of the creative architectural mind: a mind with a theory that has been abused, criticized, prostituted, but never truly grasped. For fifty years Frank Lloyd Wright has endeavored to rescue architecture from the archaism of assorted eclectic inspirations. He has preached his own theory of an organic architecture whenever an occasion arose; in a foreword to a catalogue of Japanese prints, in a description of the scenic beauties of South Dakota, in criticism of the published works of contemporary architects..."

Title: Pencil Points Reader, A Journal for the Drafting Room - 1920-1943 (Hard Cover DJ) (Published by Princeton Architectural Press, New York)
Author: Hartman, George E.; Cigliano, Jan
Description: Dust jacket: "The first issue of the legendary architecture journal Pencil Points appeared in 1920 as ‘a journal for the drafting room.’ Born out of The Architectural Review, and merged with Progressive Architecture in 1943, Pencil Points became the leading voice in architectural and graphic design when modernism flourished, introducing key players from America and Europe. It also established the agenda in architectural theory: multivolume pieces by John Harbeson, Talbot Hamlin, Hugh Ferris, and others dealt with major issues that are still relevant today-architectural education and practice, small-house design and portable housing, city planning, and the influence (or not) of modernism. Items like George Nelson's series of reports from Europe in the early 1930s, H. Van Buren Magonigle's diatribes against modernism, and a glossary of Ecole des Beaux-Arts terms sit side-by-side with the best architectural drawings and photographs of the 20th century. Pencil Points Reader re-publishes the most important essays from the journal's twenty-three years, arranged chronologically, and offers an insider's introduction by John Dixon, the former executive editor of Progressive Architecture. Pencil Points Reader is a prized collector's edition and an essential addition to any architectural library." Frank Lloyd Wright is referred in many articles, on pages 245, 284, 292, 312, 420, 470, 489, 562, 598, 626 and includes references to Fallingwater, the Larkin Building and St. Marks Tower, with two illustrations of St. Marks Tower.

In 1950, Frank Lloyd Wright's Larkin Company Administration Building was sold for $5000, to be demolished immediately for a $100,000 truck-storage garage. It's passing was a little noticed although, when it was newly completed, this same building electrified the architectural world. So absolute was its departure from tradition, so radical were its innovations, so startling its appearance, that it shocked and puzzled more often then it please. Soon the center of impassioned comment and controversy, it's influence was destined to be worldwide: it was a landmark, and undisputed turning point in commercial design. In less in fifty years, the antagonism turn to acceptance, and then to apathy. Such is the irony of architectural progress in America – it's most important monuments quickly forgotten or destroyed..." Includes four photographs and one illustration of the Larkin Building.

A dozen buildings never before between boards, some inspired pages such as only the maturity of genius can pen unabashed, make this book a prize. And ample, nicely presented body of illustrations goes far to balance those passages of text were Wright seems intent upon pushing Polonius.. But by now Frank Lloyd Wright has earned the right to be dull occasionally in his cause of ‘Truth Against the World.’ Those who agree with him that his principles are great and much needed, will wonder how many readers, often removed from the direct experience of his buildings, will be able to extract from his often cryptic, freighted prose those nourishing insights which give him his extraordinary statue..."

Description: Book Review: "The spontaneous genius. Frank Lloyd Wright to 1910. Grant C. Manson, Reinhold Publishing Corp., $10. Unlike the more recent illustrative or autobiographical publications, Frank Lloyd Wright to 1910 by Grant C. Manson, is a critical, scholarly study intended to document and evaluate Wright’s work and to delve into the thorny problems connected with the development of his highly personal style. In the fulfillment of this task the author has met with admirable success... In summation, Frank Lloyd Wright to 1910 stands is a valuable and welcome addition to our knowledge of this great American architect. The readable text and numerous illustrations make the volume of primary interest to layman and professionals alike so long as they share an interest in this most important aspect of our architectural heritage."

Description: Frank Lloyd Wright has endorsed terne verbally and through imaginative use. He has said: "Because of its inherent adaptability in both form and color, terne permit's the visible roof area to become a significant part of structural design. His Dopkins residence, at North Canton, Ohio, utilizes terne in a Burmuda-type/horizontal-seam construction. Two forthcoming Wright projects also evidence is appreciation of its qualities: one, the terne roof for the Fasbender Clinic in Hastings, Minnesota, features a deep, all-around overhang for an effect of massive continuity and strength; the other, the Wedding Chapel of the Claremont Hotel in Berkeley, California, shows an entirely different use of terne to create a contemporary pagodalike feeling of lightness, airiness, and grace.

Description: Book Review. House Beautiful, Gannett, Wright, Prairie School, 1963, $22.50. "... To hold in hand a book which so engrossed Wright’s creative interest two-thirds of a century ago, even though it is a facsimile, is an evocative experience. Its thin elegance, its characteristically square shape, its curious mixture of literary influence from Elbert Hubbard and design influences Louis Sullivan overlaid by Wright’s youthful personality brings the freshness of the early days at Oak Park powerfully to mind. With ease, we project ourselves into the magic circle of the W’s: Waller, Williams, Winslow, Wright – the architect and his immortalized first patrons. We gather glacial boulders from the bed of the Desplaines River to place around the doorway (much to low for convenience, of course) of the Williams house. We walk with Waller along A\ugvergne Place, the quiet new street which he and Wright have just laid out, perhaps gathering a few dried teasels as we stroll, to place in a copper bowl on our plate-rail over the fireplace. We pass thorough the porte-cochere of William Winslow’s ne house and enter the wing of his stables which houses his hobby, the Augergne Press..." (Sweeney 21)

Description: “Arizona church builds Wright design 22 years later. In 1950, Frank Lloyd Wright designed a structure for the Southwest Christian Seminary; it was never built, at least not by the seminary. It is, however, being built by the First Christian Church of Phoenix, thanks to a suggestion by the seminary president, Dr. Peyton Canary.
Following Dr. Canary's suggestion that the design might be appropriate as a new sanctuary for the church, the church building committee contacted Mrs. Frank Lloyd Wright about adapting the design for the church. In 1969 the church signed a contract with Taliesin Associated Architects, and comple. tion is scheduled for October of this year.
Plans for the $1.2 million structure include a 1000-seat sanctuary and facilities for a bible school. Exterior and interior space is defined by a series of concrete piers forming arbors over the terraces. The broad gently pitched roof ends in a central spire that admits light through stained glass.
Eventually the church plans to have its administrative offices and bible school in a bridge linking the sanctuary with an adjoining chapel. An observation tower and a free standing bell tower are also planned.” Includes one photograph of the church under construction. (Sweeney 1883)

Description: “The four Frank Lloyd Wright textured concrete block houses built in Los Angeles and Pasadena in 1923 and 1924 were not generally considered his best houses. Criticism, in general, followed Walter Curt Behrendt’s comment that the degree to which Wright sought artistic effects for their own sake removed the work from the principles on which it was based.
But then 1923 was the year Le Corbusier published "Vers une architecture," and the thinking that went into the Bauhaus was already awakened. It was a bad time for artistic effects for anything's sake.
The concrete block houses have ridden out almost half a century and have survived to see the tenets of the Bauhaus questioned. Two are in splendid shape-the Millard house in Pasadena, the most poetic, and the Freeman house in the Hollywood Hills. R.M. Schinkler kept the latter in repair until his death, and now John Lautner is the consultant.
The Ennis house, the most monumental and least interesting of the four, has not fared well. A second floor patio, sloppily roofed over, threw the plan off, and an owner who ran a gun shop cut down all the trees on the slope. New trees have been planted but the house still stands out like a for-tress. At the moment it is for sale for $225,000, 10 times the original cost.
Now the Storer house is being restored to its original condition by its new owner, Dr. Jerome Jacobi, and has been declared a monument by the Cultural Heritage Board. Along with the other block houses, it has been documented by Historic American Buildings Survey...” Includes two photographs of the Storer Residence. (Sweeney 1898)
