[EAN: 9780853311140], Near Fine, [PU: Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd], SEAPORT, LIVERPOOL, LIVERPOOL DOCKYARDS, Jacket, SEAPORT-a 1969 reprint of the First Edition of 1964. Quarto; black cloth boards with white titles to spine - neat and square. pp : xi + 180; tight, bright and clean, without marks, inscriptions or annotations. The unclipped dustwrapper similarly bright and clean, with minimal indeed wear. Printed entirely in black and white on high quality art paper, this is a stylish production, with photography mainly by David Smith and Graham Wrightson, book design by Graham Johnson for Lund Humphries. The RIBA Journal, on the book's first appearance, declared that ' This is a book for anyone who loves beauty. It is beautiful to handle, to read, to look at.' Published at a time when Graeme Shankland could suggest in his Foreword: 'Foreign Visitors do not yet see Liverpool as one of Britain's main tourist attractions; the next ten years can change this.' How perceptive! In July of 2019 it was estimated that the Visitor Economy of Liverpool's City Region was worth nearly £5 billion for the previous year, with nearly 70 million visitors. There are beautiful, but sad, photographs here of the Docks area in a state of decay, the fantastic architecture ready to be recognised and rescued, a process of regeneration which wasn't to begin until 1981. There is a profusion of architectural images throughout, as drawings, photographs and maps, followed by a list of References in The Text, which amounts to an interesting Bibliography. A very nice copy of a lovely book. Now protected and enhanced by a removable, transparent sleeve. PLEASE SEE FIVE ACCOMPANYING IMAGES.
