Rare Books

This collection contains approximately 870 publications and printed items, produced by various organizations, related to hospitals, medicine, medical education, and public health, chiefly in Southern California in the 20th century. The materials were compiled as part of the library of the Los Angeles County Medical Association Collection, a professional institution designed to regulate and encourage the development of the medicine in Los Angeles. The bulk of the collection consists of programs for meetings, conventions, and congresses; annual reports for medical societies, hospitals, and medical schools; and doctor, staff, and medical student directories. In addition, there are reprints of speeches and addresses; yearbooks for medical schools; commemorative, biographical, and historical publications; some original historical documents; by-laws and founding documents; and some planning and administrative documents. The materials include items produced by nearly 200 different authors, though many organizations are represented by only a few items. There are over 140 items published by or about the Los Angeles County Medical Association. The collection also contains seven boxes of catalog cards created by the Los Angeles County Medical Association describing the materials in the collection.

Los Angeles Wheelmen scrapbook

Visual Materials

A disbound scrapbook and four additional folders containing photographs, newspaper clippings, and some ephemera related to the Los Angeles Wheelmen bicycle club and bicycling in Los Angeles, California, from the late 1880s to about 1940. Items include assorted photographs of bicyclists, races and events, photographs of different bicycle styles including high wheel, tandem and safety styles, ephemeral items such as dealer cards, greeting cards with images of bicycles, advertisements for races and events, and bicycle history-related newspaper clippings. The materials date from the late 1880s to the 1930s. Among the images are photographs of T. Alvan Luter (1886); members of the Oberon Bicycle Club; F. Florentin (1900); Frank Pearne (1900); Frank Haeney (1921); Jessie Brunson, the owner of the second women's bicycle shop in Alhambra; the Lee Chambers Bike Shop in Santa Monica (1899), and the Main Spring Salon storefront at the junction of Spring and Main Street in Los Angeles (1902). The collection includes some correspondence and envelopes addressed to Clyde Hafer of Los Angeles around 1940, suggesting that he may have been the scrapbook's compiler. In addition there is a copy of the August 8, 1896, issue of the Washington Cyclist periodical; a bicycle catalog booklet of the Appeal Mfg. & Jobbing Company (titled "Greetings 1908: Appeal to the Earth is the Echo"); and a booklet, "Food Facts" by Donald B. Armstrong (Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, 1917).
