House of Henry H. Cook, Esq. on 78th Street and 5th Avenue, New York, NY
William Wheeler Smith, architect(s). From the American Architect and Building News, December 15, 1888. 13 by 9 inches. VG+ condition.
Gelatine Print. This picture is extremely hard to find. The American Architect and Building News had a very small circulation during this time and these original gelatine prints only appeared in a very limited number of issues that were distributed to a few prominent architects. This is from the architect Bruce Price's collection. It measures 13 by 9 inches. Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture). The whole picture measures 14.75 by 11.75 inches (with border). Extraordinary detail in this early photographic print. Shrink wrapped.
