193710979Washington DC: United States Government Printing Office 1937. First Edition. 1140pp. Octavo 21 cm Black cloth with the title gilt stamped on the backstrip. Near fine. Lacks the dust jacket. Illustrated throughout with black & white photographs and maps. 'Handkerchief Map' on the pastedowns and endsheets. Both folding color maps are present in the rear pocket. A monumental work and the largest of any of the FWP publications. The FWP headquarters planned the guide to Washington to be the prototype for all the other state guides which were to follow. The book was intended to resolve major questions of format scope and emphasis and whether the subsequent AGS books were to be reference works or actual guidebooks. As the D.C. guide shows they could be both. This work is both a regular tour book of the City and a description of the various government departments. It was judges essential to include the latter since the City could not be separated from the Capital. Dykes 385. Powell 152. Scharf/Schoyer 670. United States Government Printing Office unknown

1917373758Engineering Magazine New York 1917. Unframed Print. Very Good Condition. Published in Engineering Magazine in April 1917 this diagram image measuring 20 x 31 cms folded as issued stands as a striking visual metaphor for early 20th-century organizational thought along with a 3 page accompanying explantory article. Rendered with mechanical precision it transforms abstract managerial functions into tangible industrial components; pipes pulleys conveyors and control panels each representing the flow of planning production finance and customer engagement. Its not merely illustrative it is conceptual architecture. The image invites viewers to see the business not as a hierarchy or ledger but as a living system of interdependent parts where decisions ripple through departments like steam through valves. Its brilliance lies in its clarity and ambition. By mechanizing management the diagram bridges the gap between factory floor and executive office showing how advertising fuels distribution how personnel supports production and how customer satisfaction feeds back into gross income. It anticipates systems thinking decades ahead of its time offering a proto-infographic that is both elegant and instructive. For curators of industrial symbolism or editorial campaigns exploring the evolution of business logic this is a rare and resonant artifact where metaphor becomes machinery and management becomes motion. Preserved in modern card covers prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 13 x 20 cms.
