Something truly unique for the serious collector of Frank Lloyd Wright material. This offering is for an extensive collection of 220 individual files of plan sets for unbuilt projects, built houses, preliminary drawings and numerous details. The collection consists of files of 8.5″ x 11″ photocopies (xerox). Each individual file varies in size from a few sheets such as the David Wright Living Room rug to well over 150 sheets for the Fallingwater plan. Many of the plan sets consist of the eight or nine sheets that were typical of a FLW set of plans. Obviously, I can’t show examples of everything in this collection but I have provided two examples. The Edgar Lee project (photos # 1,2,3,4,5) which includes the prelims and the working drawings. This file totals 12 sheets. Also shown (photos # 10,11) is the residence project for V. This file includes the preliminary sketches and working drawings totaling 20 sheets. For reference, this collection is quite diverse in scope with many unbuilt, little known projects as well known and lesser known built residences. This collection was compiled over a lengthy time period. A lot of time, effort and significant expense went into accumulating this material. Sure, 8.5″ x 11″ photocopies is not like having a full size set of plans in hand but. This material does provide a vast amount of information on unbuilt projects, built houses and details that one is not likely to have access to. This monumental batch of research and study material provides wonderful insight into Frank Lloyd Wright’s architecture that isn’t readily available. Even to architectural scholars unless you have unlimited access to the Taliesin Archives. Because of the significance of this collection, It won’t be broken up or parted out Ideally, this plan collection should be in the hands of someone who will truly appreciate it, keep it together and foremost. I have included photos (# 6,7,8,9) of the inventory of the collection. Though it might not read all that well, I’m glad to provide the list of this collection or additional photos to a potential purchaser. So there is no misunderstanding, this listing is for the complete collection as per the inventory list. Also please note that while offers will be considered, I won’t entertain or respond to ridiculously low offers.
