Description

Two items: a glossy 8 x 10 photo of the architect in his trademark thick-rimmed glasses, signed in black felt tip; and a TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, Johnson/Burgee Architects letterhead, February 6, 1980, in part: "Your invitation is seductive indeed. I cannot think of anything I would rather do. Unfortunately, my doctor has made me restrict my travel to such a degree that I am unable to accept such wonderful occasions. I only wish I had another life to lead." In fine condition, with two file holes to the left edge of the letter.
