Description:
- This group of correspondence, clippings and a copy of a resolution was compiled by the architect, Lloyd Wright, for his own record while he was persuing the commission for the Los Angeles Municipal Airport, Mines Field, California. While Wright received the approval of the Municipal Art Commission, his design was ultimately rejected by the Airport Committee in favour of a Spanish Colonial design. The correspondence is composed of carbon copies and mimeographs of a letter sent to the Municipal Art Commission requesting that the commission consider his design. There are several copies of this letter, probably because it was sent to individual committee members and a copy was made of each letter. Of the newspaper clippings, three relate to the Mines Field project; the most significant is a half-page spread with photographs of both Lloyd Wright's project and the successful Spanish Colonial design. Also on the same page are photographs of four of people involved in the commission, including Lloyd Wright, a councilman, a member of the art commission, and the airport manager. The two other Mines Field clippings announce the completion of an aircraft factory at Mines Field and the completion of the municipal airport within thirty days. The unrelated clipping announces a model airport to be built in Chicago. Also included with these documents are a copy of the resolution made by the Municipal Art Commission recommending Wright's design to the Airport Committee and an envelope addressed to Clifford Henderson, Director of Municipal Airports, City of Los Angeles.
