This is the uncommon hardcover version of the estate catalogue for the influential San Francisco designer Michael Taylor whose client roster included Nan Kempner, David Geffen, and Mrs. Norton Simon. The highly anticipated monograph on Taylor finally arrived in 2009, serving to make this catalogue more coveted. It contains over one thousand lots. Many of the items are pictured as well as described, such as Taylor’s famous Spanish Baroque carved giltwood four-poster bed is shown in a full-page illustration.
