The Nineteenth-Century Architecture of Saratoga Springs

The Nineteenth-Century Architecture of Saratoga Springs

Martin Stephen Moskof, New York, New York, 1970

Description

The book is a scholarly pictorial study of the Victorian architecture of Saratoga Springs, with emphasis on preservation of landmarks—part of a series on architecture worth saving in New York State. Produced within a limited budget.

Designers’ Comments: The main design problem centered around trying to visually explain a text that was written in the technical jargon of the architecture historian. Secondly, most of the photos were shot in 35mm under relatively poor conditions.

Special Features: All text photos spot varnished.
