Vanishing Victorians: A Guide to the Historic Homes of Sacramento
1973réf. 001191American Association of University Women Sacramento Branch 1973. 3ème tirage. Couverture rigide. Très bon. Merrill Wozniak et al. Includes three separate pamphlets 9.5 x 21.5cm with six panels that foldout into an illustrated map all dated 1973 in very good crisp hard stock paper with only defect visible on "Driving" which has sunned spine. They are entitled: Bicycling amidst Vanishing Victorians; Driving amidst Vanishing Victorians; Walking amidst Vanishing Victorians. The book itself has light surface wear to illustrated hardcover boards and a bookplate on inside front cover. It is profusely illustrated with BW photos by Loli Sergo and Dave Lacerda to name only a few and architectural line drawings by James Callaghan Art Hudson and Denise Dalton: this is the third printing of April 1975; 20.5 x 25.5cm. The details of this endeavor are impressive take for example this credit on illustrated endpaper following last page of index: "The ink renderings of archictectural Terra Cotta designs 'from the manufactory of Gladding; McBean & Co. Lincoln Placer County Cal.' were done for the divider pages by Paula Boghosian as were the drawings of the architectural details." Put in a new bookplate and this set makes an excellent collectible gift. As a bonus I will include 2011 photos and video revisiting many of these Victorians illustrating how they have fared in the 34 years since publication.
