About This Item
Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press, 1972. First Edition. Hardcover. Like New. First edition, first printing. Signed and inscribed by Robert Venturi to previous owners "A graphics monstrosity for Tom and Marjorie with our thanks for a heavenly day / Bob and Denise / April '81" with Denise Scott Brown's signature ("and Denise") added to Venturi's inscription. Errata slip laid in. About Fine, with bottom rear corner and bottom edge of front board bumped, light shelf wear, light toning to pages. In a Near Fine dust jacket with toning, shallow chipping at the head, several tears and chips to the edges with very little loss, but still quite a remarkable survival of the notoriously fragile dust jacket.
