Description

pp. XII-143 + Six plates & various text figures + 10p. Mimeographed Circular letter promoting the book and its project (in 1937) bound in at the front. There are also minor manuscript corrections in the printed QDtext, probably by Flagg. This example was owned by Reinhardt Dempwolf (1861-1945), a prominent German born architect who was very active and influential in York, PA. There is a partially typed letter (1937) to him from the author. There is also an ALS on Harvard stationary to Mr. Dempwolf from J. Burn Helme (a professor and architect prominent at Penn State). The work is scarce. It puts forward a persuasive argument that the proportions seen in the Parthenon were employed throughout the Greek classical world. PHil ARCH1
