Scale Model Kit of Lloyd's Bank Building_Assembled Kit

The Assembled Scale Model Kit

(NOT mine)

 

Scale Model (Card) Kit of Lloyd's Bank Building (London)

Dims: 360mm x 360mm x 50mm

The hardbound case containing 6 volumes, each containing 9 full-colored plates (54 of ) of documents, maps, illustrations, or photos documenting the history of Lloyd's & the design / construction of their building, and an 85 sheet card model.

 

A long time fan of modern architecture I started collecting architectural scale models about 20 years ago. These kits designed by van Zanten are beautiful in the box products. Long out-of-print I've been able to acquire 10 of his designs over the years. This is the most ambitious kit in my collection.
