Description:
- This graphite drawing of the contour lines and topographical features of the property held by the Filiorum Corporation on the Palos Verdes estates shows the future site for Wayfarers' Chapel. The graphite drawing is partitioned with a square grid, which was possibly drawn by a member of Lloyd Wright's office, because it is in the same media as the inscription "JESTER CHAPEL", one of the early names used by the architect for the project.

Description:
- This drawing is blackened with graphite on the verso so that the design could be transferred to another surface, in this case the submitted competition panel, DR1987:0359. There are drops of black watercolour and a series of black ink lines in the upper right corner. These media were used for the submitted panel and their presence here also suggests that this drawing was used in preparation of the submitted panel. There are a series of design sketches, along the left side and at the centre of the drawing, which appear to deal with the relationship of the airfield to hangars.
