Truly yours, Frank Lloyd Wright. He had it in his desk for years and when he died his grandson found the Letter intact and with the Envelope in crisp condition. I believe Wright sent the Letter as a means to announce his new Oak Park Studio and his satellite office in the Rookery in Chicago-thus the new Letterhead on the Letter and Envelope. A way to advertise his location and stature. He was always the promoter.

Wright’s patents for the Luxfer Prisms resulted in royalties with which he was able to construct a new Studio at his home in Oak Park. Typically installed in the upper registers of windows in both industrial and commercial spaces, these ribbed, 4-inch square sheets of glass used refraction to illuminate large, deep spaces with natural light. Wright’s many designs for Luxfer Prisms are distinguished by their geometric patterning. They feature abstract compositions made up of beading, squares. Circles, and ovals that are reminiscent of Friedrich Froebel’s Gifts that Wright engaged with as a child. Wright’s patents for the Luxfer Prisms resulted in royaltieswith which he was able to construct a new studio at his home in Oak Park. I have been Collecting FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT for Years.
