The article reports that Gimbel Corp. has brought together in its Philadelphia, Pennsylvania store a remarkably effective exhibition of the life work of the U.S.'s greatest architect Frank Llyod Wright. The show was designed by Oskar Stonorov and is itself superb experience; it was a beautiful idea to have it climaxed, at its farther end, with a full-size portion of a Wright house-living-room, bedroom and kitchen, so that the visitor can get the actual feeling of what such a house is like. Some time ago Gimbel's put on the magnificent Better Philadelphia exhibition; this Wright show is a logical and worthy carrying out of the same idea.
