A propos de cet article

Palliser’s American Cottage Homes, Palliser, Palliser & Co., Bridgeport, Conn., 1878, illustrated, with 40 plates and adverts, 14.5 x 11”, folio. In very good condition. Considering its age, this is quite nice! Nicely rebacked spine has made this more sturdy and sound. Minimal wear to extremities with minor instances of scuffing to surface of cloth. Stunning late-Victorian end papers with gold foil accents remain remarkably bright and clean. Bookplate of Maurice Robert Des Marais on front end pastedown. Des Marais was a longtime faculty member in the Department of Architecture at Penn State College of Arts and Architecture and a corporate member of the American Institute of Architects. Interior has minimal toning and minor instances of foxing. All plates present. Rear ad featuring “French Green” paints remains intact with light offsetting. Binding intact. Please see photos. “An appealing and influential book, the designs range from simple and inexpens to ambitious and pretentious. The American architectural firm of Palliser, Palliser & Company was founded in 1876. Like Shoppell's Co-Operative Buildin Plan Association, they specialized in the marketing of stock house plans. Th plans reflect the full-fledged Americanized Queen Anne style of Norman Shaw. Palliser's first book plans, Model Homes for the People, was published in 18 but it is the two volumes of cottages - Palliser's American Cottage Homes (18 and Palliser's New Cottage Homes (1887) - that capture the inventiveness and vigor of the American Queen Anne style. The illustrated title-page of this b is an outstanding example of American Aesthetic book design. In addition to house plans and views, there are seven pages which include specifications and contracts for builders and also building related advertisements in the back.”.…
