""Anaconda Architectural Bronze Extruded Shapes"" is a definitive trade catalog and technical reference documenting the aesthetic and functional applications of bronze in early 20th-century architecture. Produced by the American Brass Company, this work showcases the intricate extruded shapes and profiles that defined the Art Deco and Neoclassical design eras. It serves as a comprehensive guide for architects, builders, and designers, illustrating the versatility and enduring beauty of bronze as a primary material for storefronts, windows, doors, and ornamental details.
The book details the metallurgical properties and structural possibilities of Anaconda bronze, providing technical drawings and cross-sections that highlight the precision of the extrusion process. By bridging the gap between industrial manufacturing and high-end architectural design, this volume captures a pivotal moment in the development of modern building materials. It remains a valuable resource for historical preservationists, industrial designers, and those interested in the history of American metalworking and the evolution of urban skylines during the interwar period.
