I will be doing a follow-up post after getting the Imperial Hotel issue of the OA + D Journal. There was a mix-up with my copy.

Thanks so much for posting ! And thanks too for a more-than-expectably thorough report on what the available pamphlet reprint contains. The appetite is duly whetted . . .

Finally, those detail shots of masonry compositions are unique and revelatory. And to read about what steps were taken in choosing the brick for the building . . .!

Thank you, Stephen. I have since learned quite a bit from Kathryn Smith about the hotel and will be posting a Chapter Two after I get and delve into the 100 / 100 Journal.

Just recently returned from Japan
I snatched both of these reprints asap as there may be a limited printing and in addition they could sell out fast
No matter I ordered one of both
Thank You for posting
