Robert Stacy-Judd Collection circa 1923-1962.

This collection is a sampling of some of the works by Robert Benjamin Stacy-Judd, an architect flourishing in Southern California from the 1920s through the 1960s. These samplings include a letter, a newspaper article, an announcement for a lecture series and a book "Kabah : adventures in the jungles of Yucatan." The items reflect Stacy-Judd's endorsement of Maya Art and Architecture as an ideal theme to base an American architecture. Stacy-Judd's non-Mayan works are also referenced in this collection, in the form of photographs, hand-painted postcards, charcoal drawings, pen and ink-sketches and a portfolio book that has a colorful architectural rendering of the La Jolla Beach and Yacht Club (1927). A book, "The Mayan Revival Style, by Marjorie I. Ingle is also included in this collection.

2 manuscript boxes : 8 x30 x 38 cm.
