Seller's Description:
Fine in fine jacket. Fine, fresh example in equally fine dust jacket. Oversized hardcover in navy blue cloth with spine lettered in silver. Photographic endpapers. 163 pp. Illustrated throughout with vintage black and white photographic images. The Chrysler Building, surely the crown jewel of New York City's skyline architecture. Completed in 1930, the sevety-seven story art deco masterpiece was the tallest skyscraper in the world. It has been, however, one of the least documented as neither its owner, Walter P. Chrysler nor its architect, William Van Alen, deposited materials relating to its design or construction in a central repository. This book presents reproductions of vintages images depicting the the construction of the building from street level to spire; the photos were taken by professional photographers that were hired to record the building's progress and also captured in exquisite detail day-to-day life on the streets in the enviors of the Chrysler Building.
