New York and Chicago, respectively: The Architectural Forum and The American Face Brick Association, 1924. First Edition. Wraps. Very Good. 4to. 97, [2] pp. Profusely illustrated, mostly with photos, many full page, but also plenty of line drawn diagrams. One color plate -- a drawn illustration -- plus a colorized photo mounted on the front cover. A very satisfying overview of the beauty of Tudor and Georgian architecture, and an attractively produced trade association publication, with real care put into being something not merely ephemeral. Cover with embossed letters in addition to the color photo. Leaves of a glossy substantial paper stock, etc. The lower spine tip is chipped, and the hinge broken after the FFEP. A band of lightening of the brown of the wraps.
