LETTER STATES:
"Jan 8, 1898c
Editor of Inland Architect.Dear Sir,
Will you kindly inform me as to the date you go to press with the February
number of your paper as the American Luxfer Prism Co. have an important
announcement of a competition to make involving some
five thousand dollars in prizes and would be pleased to have you
give the matter publicity in your columns.
Truly yours,Frank Lloyd Wright ."***HISTORY***
This Letter was purchased years ago from the grandson of a man that worked
in the Tribune Building (Newspaper) in Chicago, were the Letter was
originally sent. He had it in his desk for years and when he died his grandson
found the Letter intact and with the Envelope in crisp condition.
I believe Wright sent the Letter as a means to announce his new
Oak Park Studio
and his satellite office in the Rookery in Chicago-thus the new
Letterhead on the Letter and Envelope. A way to advertise his location and
stature. He was always the 5 3/8" x 4 3/16"
Letter: 5 1/4" x 4 1/8"
Wood Frame: 22 1/2" x 18 1/2"Framed with Archival Mounting, acid free, Premium Museum Glass.*EXAMPLE: FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT - LUXFER GLASS*
Wright designed and eventually and eventually patented 45 variants of the Luxfer Prism for the American Luxfer Prism Company.The content and purpose of this letter is PARAMOUNT.
It is "self-serving"; as Wright had a vested Interest in Luxfer Glass Co.
Wright had his "Eyes on the Prize".

Typically installed in the upper registersof windows in both industrial and commercial spaces, these ribbed, 4-inch square sheets of glass used refraction to illuminate large, deep spaces with natural light. Wright's many designs for Luxfer Prisms are distinguished by their geometric patterning. They feature abstract compositions made up of beading, squares. circles, and ovals that are reminiscent of Friedrich Froebel's Gifts that Wright engaged with as a child.
