The Pite Collection
Outside of the RIBA, Jeane Trend-Hill owns possibly the largest collection of Pite memorabilia including slides of his early work, influences, travels and drawings, an extensive collection of photographs of his many commissions and letters in his own handwriting, which he sent from the Royal College of Art on 27 July 1917. The collection can be viewed by appointment only, details via http://abpite.silent-cities.com.

Famous quotes containing the word collection:
“What is all wisdom save a collection of platitudes? Take fifty of our current proverbial sayings—they are so trite, so threadbare, that we can hardly bring our lips to utter them. None the less they embody the concentrated experience of the race and the man who orders his life according to their teaching cannot go far wrong.”
—Norman Douglas (1868–1952)
