Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st edition. VG book. PMUC was built from a $5000 Pullman donation and $5000 from the village of Albion. 10"x7",30pp. PULLMAN signed fep. PMUC was built as a memorial to Pullman's parents. Pullman's first business successes were in Albion when a young man. PMUC is an unusual (it has no steeple) a…nd attractive church still used by the Unitarian Universalist Association(UUA). The stained glass windows are Tiffany. The main window about 15'x8'. It is signed by Tiffani on a small glass plate affixed to lower right. Tiffany would keep his best works in his studio as long as possible and would deliver only at the very last minute. Pullman had to pressure Tiffany to get the window delivered in time for the dedication. An unusual George Pullman item; not a word about railroads, sleeping cars or any business matter. The infamous Pullman strike was only the year before. DISCLOSURE: your bookseller is a half hour from Albion. He is a Unitarian and attended this church for 10-15 years. NEAR FINE book. One minor flaw. Pullman SIGNATURE on fep. TEG. Signed by Author(s).
