Description

"Mr Otis and the Los Angeles 'Times'," published by the Publicity Committee, Los Angeles Typographical Union No. 174, 1915. The pamphlet is a polemic against Harrison Gray Otis, the longtime publisher of the newspaper who was well-known for his staunch opposition to unions. The item focuses an on 1890 lockout of printers by the four main daily papers in the city and subsequent actions by Otis deemed injurious to the union. With some soiling, creases and edge rubbing to the wrappers, but clean pages, the condition is good.
