Signed Photograph of Buckminster Fuller

Inventor, architect, engineer, mathematician, poet and cosmologist.

Inventor, architect, engineer, mathematician, poet and cosmologist, Fuller is best known for the invention of the geodesic dome – the lightest, strongest, and most cost-effective structure ever devised. The geodesic dome becomes proportionally lighter and stronger the larger it is, so it is able to cover more space without internal supports than any other enclosure. In 1957, a dome auditorium in Honolulu was put up so quickly that 22 hours after the parts were delivered, a full house was comfortably seated inside enjoying a concert. Today over 300,000 domes dot the globe. An uncommon 4 by 5 inch photograph of him, signed in the blank left margin.
