One sketch suggests this group were possibly all designs for the Biltmore Hotel, Oklahoma City. Each drawing is labeled with a model number and scale; many designate specific locations such as 2nd hall, men's room, civic room, safe deposit, main stairs, main lounge, parlor, etc. A wonderful archive of Deco design elements.
