Framing Information

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of Secular Towers: Boston Offices of Mutual Life Insurance; New Admiralty and War Offices, London; Lancashire Asylum; Town Hall, Wakefield, England; Shakespeare Memorial Tower, Stratford on Avon; Middlesburough Public Buildings; Allahabad University, India.  HAND-COLORED.  Peabody & Stears; P J  Marvin; G E Grayson; T E Colcutt; W Emerson; A W Cobb, etc., Architects.  From the American Architect and Building News, October 17, 1885.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 17.25 by 13.25 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 19.5 by 15 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.


Plan is in VG+ condition with very light browning and some minor crinkling.
