Elements show minor toning along edges and wear commensurate with handling over time.
Blueprints were stored folded, with two showing small and stable tears to corners. A nice collection, with no egregious wear noted.
Included in this collection, alongside various annotated geodesic dome blueprints, product details and several magazine and newspaper clippings concerning domes, are correspondence between Buckminster Fuller and the architect W.B. Van Geller. Fuller hand-wrote and signed a four-page letter to Geller, dated 1957, giving further detail of the construction of a plywood geodesic dome. The client, likely Ernest Callenbach, is noted in the type-written letters. This lot also includes a geodesic dome and deck plan for a client, presumably Mr. Callenbach.
