(15.2 cm x 19.9 cm). Item #021458

From the George Wharton James Collection Photographer Charles Chester Pierce began his photographic career in the thriving boom town of Los Angeles, first in partnership with Albert H. Lohn, and then successively with J.B. Blanchard and A.E. McConnell. He established his own studio around 1900 at 313 Spring Street. The most outstanding aspect of his business, however, was the vast picture library he amassed over three decades. Aside from making his own photographs, Pierce acquired the negatives and prints of other regional photographers which included George Wharton James, F.M. Huddleston and others. The following two examples are from the George Wharton James Collection.
