This 232-page hardcover (lacking jacket) includes both b/w and color photos & illustrations. Baldwin was one of the premiere interior designers/decorators in the Mid-Century. He counted, among his clients, Jackie Kennedy (and Onassis) as well as many other high society "influencers" in those days. The interior of the book is clean, bright and unmarked. The previous owner left her name and date (1974) on the Dedication page. The gray boards are a tiny bit faded and a tiny bit worn, but the book's title shines brightly on the book's spine. The book is highly valued by designers, collectors and historians. This copy will be sent, carefully packed, with tracking. less
