Description
A photograph album with 23 views of the Southern California Edison Company building, located at 601 West 5th Street in Los Angeles, California. There are various views of the building's exterior; one photograph of the building at night; and interior views of entries, hallways, and offices. There is some furniture in the building, but the photographs appear to have been taken before people started working there. This album was presented to George C. Ward, the President of Southern California Edison from 1932 to 1933, by Allison and Allison, the Los Angeles architectural firm that designed the building.
