Well-kept copy of this comprehensive volume, with a clear dust jacket cover and slipcase. Front cover board bumped in upper and lower right corners; inner front dust jacket flap price clipped and contains a crease and a fold (see photos). Previous seller pencil notation on half title page. Otherwise a wonderful book in wonderful shape.
This is the 1968 English-language translation of the original 1967 Italian-language architectural study. 452 pages with 401 b&w photographic plates and 147 drawings. Because of book size and weight, non-U.S. overseas shipping may be higher than generated at checkout.
