Stiff glossy paper covers measures 10.25 inches 26 cm x 14.5 inches 37 cm with 22 architectural drawings almost all full page and mainly in full color. We could find no record of this publication outside of China. The text is entirely in Chinese. The Google translation of the text on the fifth photograph is as follows: "Architectural drawing is an important means for architectural designers to express their design intentions explore design plans and improve their artistic accomplishments. In their design practice many architectural designers have drawn a large number of architectural drawings and they also often do architectural sketches. This album is selected from the drawings sent to our agency by many architectural designers and art workers across the country. After our agency issued a notice to collect architectural drawings in March this year many architectural designers and teachers from the Department of Architecture of colleges and universities responded enthusiastically and sent more than 1700 works. Our agency invited relevant experts to form an architectural painting selection committee to evaluate these works. The selection committee was composed of the following comrades: Bai Zuomin Qi Kang Zhu Ying Hua Yiyu Du Rujian Wu Liangyong He Zhenqiang Zhang Kaiji Zhong Xunzheng Xi Xiaopeng Huang Yuanqiang Peng Yigang and Dai Nianci. After repeated evaluation more than 200 excellent works were selected. When selecting the proportion of the number of works of each type of painting was appropriately considered. This album will be published on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. We hope that this album can reflect the great achievements of my country's socialist construction from one aspect and at the same time we also hope that this album can play a role in exchanging architectural painting techniques and improving the artistic quality of architectural designers.
