    PH Coll 1120.6Addison Mizner and his brother, Wilson Mizner, were notorious and famous members of the respectable Mizner family. They traveled to Alaska in 1897 to bilk miners during the Alaska Gold Rush. After the Gold Rush, Addison went to Guatemala, purchased relics and colonial-era furnishings, and then sold them in New York at tremendous markup prices. Despite his lack of architectural training, Addison Mizner is remembered for his pseudo-Spanish colonial designs for buildings constructed in the 1920s during the Florida land boom. Meanwhile, Addison's brother, Wilson, became famous for his wit and his plays. On the side, Wilson ran a gambling joint on Long Island, for which he was later arrested. Both Addison and Wilson Mizner died in 1933. Their father, Lansing Mizner, was the step-son of James Semple (1798-1866), United States Senator from Illinois.To order a reproduction, inquire about permissions, or for information about prices see: http://www.lib.washington.edu/specialcollections/services/reproduction/reproduction Please cite the Order Numbe
