Background

Scope and content:

The Roy Flamm Photographs of Buildings Designed by Bernard Maybeck were taken apparently for the purpose of illustrating a University of California at Berkeley memorial exhibition on Maybeck's work following the architect's death in 1957. The majority of the collection's 284 photographs --by San Francisco Bay Area photographer Roy Flamm --picture two of Maybeck's most distinguished structures: The First Church of Christ, Scientist (Berkeley, 1911); and San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts, constructed for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition of 1915. Other works featured include the Hearst Gymnasium on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, which Maybeck co-designed with Julia Morgan; the Roos House, the Goslinski House, and the Packard Showroom, all of San Francisco; the Randolph School, the Oscar Maurer Studio, the Hunt House, the Rose Walk, and the architect's studio, all of Berkeley; the Hopps House of Ross; the Tufts House of San Anselmo; and the Outdoor Art Club of Mill Valley. Also included are photographs of the exhibition installation.
