Lot 197
Wright, Frank Lloyd. There are a number of corrections, in a different hand, with the address Wright has provided being crossed out and rewritten in pencil in the top left margin. American architect.
"Who's Who" Application Signed. One leaf, two-sided, Octavo, on partially printed orange stock. "Who's Who In America, published by A.N. Marquis & Company, Chicago, Ill." printed at top, with instructions for completing form.
Frank Lloyd Wright's application form for inclusion into "Who's Who in America," completed and signed "Frank Lloyd Wright" in the first blank where the architect has filled in his name. Wright provides his vitals, describes his education, lists his Politics as "Independent," names the Societies and Fraternities to which he belongs, describes his Specialty as "Architecture - (creative)," and in the blank that asks " What have you done that is worthy of special mention?" Wright dryly quips, "The Imperial Hotel of Tokyo Japan and 176 other buildings of note." Fine.
Estimated Value $2,500-UP.
