Selected Titles for April 2020
Welcome to our April newsletter, which is our attempt at stability and continuity in this "New World Order." I asked a number of customers if they thought putting out a newsletter was still OK, amidst all the current challenges, and they all suggested we stick with it. At the risk of sounding self-serving, I relay one architect's response: "Getting your book list is a monthly bright spot in my email inbox!"
Recent development in the Schuyler clan: older daughter Stephanie just turned 30! One of my favorite shots is of her with me and her Gramma Bea (Schuyler) of Bainbridge Island, WA (RIP) from yesteryear. She and husband C.J. visited our friend and fellow preservationist Bob Zoni, pictured here, pre-social distancing(!), at a job site in front of a house museum in Hamden, CT. Bob and I were on the board of Preservation Trades Network together years ago, and he is doing structural work (epoxy and all) to this post and beam museum.
Our third photo is from Rebecca Price, the architectural librarian at the University of Michigan. They have been purchasing some visually interesting pieces from our recent newsletters (samples of linoleum, architectural glass, marble, etc.), which will be on display through September. Now they need their students back ...
And on that note, for those of us who are hunkered down and have a little extra time for browsing, I hope you enjoy this current - remotely produced - effort! And stay safe out there ...
Happy browsing! Steven
