Purcell and Elmslie
1917/1918

While working as the advertising manager of Alexander Brothers, Purcell undertook a series of designs to promote the work of his architectural firm.  Printed by Norman T. A. Munder in Philadelphia, these two-color process sheets were folded in several shapes, both portrait and landscape; some had leaves that formed cover business cards (e.g. the Alexander Brothers factory brochure).
