Beschreibung

Soft brown wrapper with stamped two-tone illustration on cover. String-bound. A substantial keepsake given to attendees of the 61st Annual Convention of the International Typographical Union in Los Angeles, 1915. Several articles, including a guide to the city and numerous topical pieces by union members, most of whom are shown in photographs at articles' head. Articles are laid out using graphical elements such as borders, decorations, and carefully placed b/w photographs and line illustrations. Examples of color printing exhibited throughout with a few color plates. Contents boast of this being the first visit of an international union body to the city of Los Angeles. The union-associated McNamara bombing of the Los Angeles Times had occurred five years prior, and the Times successfully resisted unionization following the bombing and trial. Scarce -- one copy apparent in San Francisco State University Labor Archives & Research Center. Wrapper is chipped around edges with chunks missing at head and foot of spine. Interior lightly bumped at corners. Pages remain clean and bright. 152 pp, unnumbered. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ac150192
