1989réf. 1770Montreal: Centre Canadien d'Architecture / Canadian centre for Architecture 1989. Hardcover. Good/poor. Heavy brown cloth oversize oblong hardcover - A good book in a poor dust-jacket. The book would be very good but for a weak front hinge light bending at the corners and a couple of remainder markings to the bottom of the text-block edge. The front hinge appears to have been repaired with the paper splitting - this being a large heavy book the hinges are the first thing to go. Minor soiling at the front free-endpaper. The text is all clean and unmarked and firmly bound together. The dustjacket is truly tattered and included for completeness rather than quality. 369 pp. indexed filled with duotone illustrations reproductions and some full color photos. An amazing collection of architectural drawings and photos. Centre Canadien d'Architecture / Canadian centre for Architecture hardcover
