These photographs were taken by Warren C. Dickerson, around 1900-1902. They are identified as Simons Brick Company from the collections of the Seaver Center for Western History Research, accessible through their digital collection. This was a brickmaking plant at 1119 So. Boyle Avenue, Los Angeles, in operation before Simons' plant number 3 opened in Montebello in 1905.
Interesting and worthy sites devoted to the study of Los Angeles, California, as a place, populate the web---"Los Angeles Revisited" joins the ranks, to appeal to readers of L.A. and Southern California history on a popular level, but also to serve with educational merit---The blog title is a nod to those who write about and photograph the Los Angeles region and to acknowledge the historical palimpsest of our built communities.
