hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 2000 signed first edition, association copy (1977 Nobel winner Roger Guillemin), Gibbs Smith (Salt Lake City, Utah), 11 x 12 1/4 inches tall green buckram cloth hardcover in publisher's unclipped dust jacket, gilt lettering to front cover and spine, burgundy endp…apers, copiously illustrated with black-and-white and color photographs and drawings, xii, 132 pp. Laid in is a card reading, 'From the Private Collection of Dr. Roger and Lucienne Guillemin, Nobel Laureate, 1977, Salk Institute, La Jolla, CA.' Roger Charles Louis Guillemin was a French-American neuroscientist who received the National Medal of Science in 1976, and the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1977 for his work on neurohormones. Slight edgewear to covers, especially along the lower edge of the front cover. Mild staining to half title page. On the title page, nicely signed by author Randell Makinson (1932-2013), a forceful advocate for preservation of the rambling Greene and Greene bungalows that came to be seen as graceful emblems of early 20th century California. Ink former owner gift inscription to dedication page. Otherwise, a very good copy - clean, bright and unmarked - in a very good dust jacket which is nicely preserved and displayed in a clear archival Brodart sleeve. Copies signed by Makinson are especially uncommon. Note that this is a heavy and oversized book, so additional postage will be required for international or priority orders. ~NN~ [4.0P] Building on the success of his earlier books, Randell L. Makinson joins with Thomas Heinz and Brad Pitt in producing this rich monograph on the Robert Roe Blacker house, in Pasadena, California, the largest and most elaborate of the refined Greene and Greene style. New color photographs provide the first full documentation of the house following its extensive five-year restoration, for which Makinson was the architect. The Robert Roe Blacker House is a residence in Pasadena, California, which is now on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. It was built in 1907 for Robert Roe Blacker and Nellie Canfield Blacker. It was designed by Henry and Charles Greene of the renowned Pasadena firm of Greene and Greene. This house was a lavish project for the Greene brothers, costing in excess of $100,000 ($3.37 million today). Everything for the house was custom designed, down to the teak escutcheon plates of the upstairs mahogany panel doors to the linen closets with their ebony cloud adorned keys. Restoration architect Randall Makinson, with a specialty in Greene and Greene, and James Ipekjian, a master craftsman, restored the house in 1994 along with an entire team of like minded mastercraftsmen that were specialists in their fields. The building was restored inside and out. Ipekjian was responsible for re-creating the wood work of the lamps and other fixtures; he even traveled to see one of the original pieces in order to make a correct copy. The house was entirely re-wired and re-plumbed, the structure upgraded to withstand earthquakes, and discreet ventilation ducts were installed. Every shingle was removed and either restored or replaced, all timbers were stripped and refinished, and nearly all the tail rafters cantilevering beyond the roof line needed to be replaced. After four years of restoration, a benefit dinner hosted by actor Brad Pitt celebrated the completion of the project.
