The First Record is the beginning of the written and photographic record of The Great Kinyon Project.
Across 50 pages, the book offers an introduction to the life, home, and extraordinary body of work left behind by Dell Kinyon Taylor. Printed on high-quality paper and filled with carefully selected photographs, it captures the scale, detail, and atmosphere of a place that is difficult to understand without stepping through its doors.
The photographs move through the house and the things Dell made over a lifetime—paintings, stained glass, jewelry, textiles, sculpture, furniture, architectural details, and the countless objects that together form a world almost entirely made by one man.
Unlike the limited and numbered editions produced as part of The Great Kinyon Project, The First Record is our standard softcover book. It is not limited, numbered, or tied to a particular release. It was created to remain available: an enduring introduction to Dell, the house, the work, and the story we are working to preserve.
This is not intended to document everything. That would be impossible in fifty pages.
It is simply the first record of something much larger.
