About This Item
New York: New York World's Fair 1939, 1939. softcover. Very good. 4 page pamphlet printed in two colors (measures about 7 1/8" by 10 3/16") plus 5 wallpaper samples (each measuring about 8 1/2" by 11" ) designed for the "Garden Home" -- Mura-Theme Wallapers by Thibaut. Mura-Theme wallpapers "provide a main or basic motif or decoration idea which is sustained in the wall decoration throughout this house. It presents a smooth flowing transition as one goes from room to room. The home is thought of as one large harmonious unit rather than considering the individual units as separate, unrelated units." Each item is in a separate plastic sleeve. Very Good. 012204A Interior Design
