My father knew Frank Lloyd Wright personally and worked with him on his pre-fabricated homes. My father gave me this brochure many decades ago. He was in the redwood business in the mid-1950s, working for Simpson Timber Company of Eureka, California. My grandfather was the President of Simpson Timber Company. My father met with Frank Lloyd Wright in Chicago in 1955 and convinced him to use redwood battens in his pre-fabricated homes. Redwood, as you may know, is 6/7ths water and virtually fireproof. Around this time, my father also threw a cocktail party for Frank Lloyd Wright at the Chicago Club or the CAA, the Chicago Athletic Association. This party was documented in an issue of LOOK Magazine in the late 1950s. Eleven houses in total were built. Offering in VERY GOOD CONDITION this oversize 8-page brochure on thick coated stock advertising three different FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT designed PRE-FABRICATED HOMES. Please see close-up pictures for details. What you see is what you get. Dimensions are approximately 9 1/2 inches x 12 1/2 inches. EXTREMELY RARE and ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. By spring of 1956 Wright had final plans for three Usonian-type homes to be built exclusively by ME&A. Eleven homes in total were built. Nine examples of Prefab #1 were built. Two examples of Prefab #2 were built. No examples of Prefab #3 were ever built. The prefab package Erdman offered included all the major structural components, interior and exterior walls, floors, windows and doors, as well as cabinets and woodwork. Wright also intended to inspect each home after completion, and to apply his famous glazed red signature brick to the home if it had been completed as planned. Eugene Van Tamelen House Madison, Wisconsin (1956). Arnold Jackson House “Skyview” moved from Madison to Beaver Dam, Wisconsin in 1985 (built 1957).
