Interesting TLS, 8.75 x 7.75, Taliesin letterhead, May 10, 1943. Letter to Jim Smith, secretary of Cooperative Homesteads, Inc., in full: “I sympathize with the group but fear the situation is not such that we can organize the thing right now. What do you really think? I am willing to do my part when doing it will get results. Are you ready to go?” Double-matted and framed with a handsome portrait of the esteemed architect to an overall size of 21.5 x 15.5. In fine condition, with two vertical folds and a few scattered stains, mostly to right side. In 1941 Frank Lloyd Wright began the Cooperative Homesteads community project in Detroit’s Madison Heights. Embodying his ideas of decentralization, modern-cost housing, and living in a more natural landscape, the project was unfortunately shelved due to the Second World War. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
