Description: LEARNING FROM LAS VEGAS One of the most significant and influential books on architecture ever, written by one of the most important architects of 20th century, Robert Venturi, along with his wife and partner Denise Scott Brown and colleague Steven Izenour. This hardcover first printing is signed by both Venturi and Brown, with an inscription by Venturi. The book is complete with the notoriously fragile glassine dust jacket, now protected in plastic. The jacket is toned and has some tears and wear, as seen in the photos, but is still in presentable condition. The book itself has minor bumping to the top forward corner and some foxing to the text edges as well as the first and last couple leaves (see second to last photo), otherwise very nice. The binding is strong; the text is mildly toned with age, otherwise sharp and unmarked. The rare errata slip is included. In all, an above-average copy of this landmark work, made especially valuable by the rare signature. This is the best price for a signed first anywhere online. An oversize volume, 10.75" X 14", xviii + 189 pages, illustrated throughout. Ships promptly & securely.
