Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
The Arthur H. Clark Company, founded in Cleveland in 1902 by the English-born bookseller whose name the company bore, relocated its 100,000-title book stock and publishing operation to Glendale in 1930. The presence of the Arthur H. Clark Company strengthened and consolidated the book culture of greater Los Angeles, and their published books, including frontier-related books, as well as hundreds of other significant monographs and annotated translations and reprints, set national standards for the publishing industry.
View 4: Interior view of the Arthur H. Clark Company library, located at 1214 S. Brand Avenue in the city of Glendale. It shows a well-stocked, well-lit room with wall-to-wall shelves full of books. A large table and four chairs, available to those doing research, sits toward the right of the room (not visible from this angle). Photograph dated: August 4, 1930.
