Nice little pamphlet-book, 64 pp & 58 photos (if I counted right) by a good photographer. Layout & color reproduction are just OK -- colors kinda dim, and for some reason are printed with large white "frames". I would have preferred more photo, less white space...

Nevertheless, my copy was (I think) $1, and it's a keeper: 3.4 stars. Places to look for around LA, for people like me who seek out good art-deco stuff. Here's her site for this book, with 12 photos:
