Description
This 32-page book is a catalogue that was originally printed by the Grand Rapids Bookcase and Chair Company (“Lifetime”) expressly for the Lyon-McKinney-Smith Co. of Los Angeles, California. The book is interesting not only for the several forms of Lifetime furniture that do not appear in other catalogue reprints but also because the right-hand page of successive page spreads feature contemporary photographs of thirteen California missions with a brief history of each mission excerpted from Jesse S. Hildrup’s The Missions of California and the Old Southwest.
