The Architectural Terra Cotta of Gladding McBean, a remarkable photographic collection of the pre-eminent West Coast producer of decorative terra cotta from 1890 to 1930. Over one hundred photographs of architectural splendors from neo-Classic motifs of the earliest San Francisco "skyscrapers" to the ornate Art Deco movie palaces of Hollywood, plus information-packed text by historian Gary E. Kurutz, make a graphic tribute to a fascinating chapter of American architectural history.
Great condition. Dust jacket has slight discoloration and bending on edges.
