Description

"American Builder," June 1928 (Vol. 45, No. 3), published by American Carpenter and Builder Co., Chicago. The publication covers many aspects of the construction industry, including house plans, commercial architecture, innovations in the industry, and practical tips for builders. There is also an article on the design of the recently-completed Los Angeles Public Library with illustrations and mention of muralist Julian Garnsey, who also did murals for Walter Temple's Temple Theater in Alhambra. With edge tears, soiling, stains, and creases on the wrapper, but clean pages, the overall condition is good.
