Auditorium for the City of Oakland, California, 1912. John J. Donovan

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Auditorium for the City of Oakland, California.  HAND-COLORED.  John J. Donovan, Architect.  From the American Architect and Building News, July 10, 1912.

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 16.5 by 12 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 20 by 15 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with light browning along the edges and some light crinkling.
