First Edition. Folio. Errata slip laid in. In 1968, Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown and Steven Izenour taught a third year studio graduate class at Yale that would have great implications on the study of architecture in the postmodern era. The class was called Learning from Las Vegas, or Form Analysis as Design Research. There were 13 students in total. In the end, their work would comprise the basis for the present landmark architectural work; authored by Venturi, Brown, and Izenour, but compiled, researched and photographed by the students themselves. The seminal architectural text of its era, comparable to Ruscha, in terms of prescience and influence. Fine in a near fine jacket with a few edge nicks and a subtle vertical crease to the front flap. A remarkable preservation of a jacket that is usually missing or significantly perished. Housed in custom cloth clamshell box, with leather lettering piece to spine. N° de réf. du vendeur 24607

Pictorial cloth. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. WARMLY INSCRIBED BY ROBERT VENTURI (AND SIGNING ALSO FOR HIS PARTNER DENISE BROWN) on the front free endpaper. A solid, well-preserved copy to boot of the 1972 1st edition of this seminal manifesto in urban planning. Clean and Near Fine in a crisp, price-intact, VG example of the notoriously fragile, printed glassine dustjacket. The jacket is at least 95% complete but does show just a bit of inevitable chipping -- in this case at the lower-tips, the foot of the spine and along the top-edges and the spine crown. Still though, solidly VG to VG+, very presentable and a significantly above-average example. Folio, a remarkable, exhaustive examination of the architecture of The Strip. Uncommon as such, the 1st edition inscribed by its principal author (and architect) and in such sharp condition. Signed. N° de réf. du vendeur 21547
