Language of Material: English . Biographical / Historical The Los Angeles Examiner was founded in December 1903 by William Randolph Hearst. A morning paper, it printed its last issue on January 7, 1962. The paper closed at the same time as the Times-Mirror afternoon paper the Los Angeles Mirror. These closures left the Los Angeles Times as the only significant morning newspaper in Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Evening Herald & Express, another Hearst paper, as the only significant afternoon paper. After its closure, the Examiner was absorbed by the Herald & Express, which was renamed the Herald-Examiner. The Examiner was a right-leaning paper and published as a broadsheet. At the time of its closure, the paper had a daily circulation of about 380,000 and a Sunday circulation of about 700,000. The closure of the paper at the same time as that of the Los Angeles Mirror caused the Department of Justice to open an informal restraint-of-trade investigation into possible collusion between the Hearst and Times-Mirror companies. Scope and Contents 7000.5--biographical clippings. 930 boxes (shoe box-sized) containing newspaper clippings grouped by biographical subject and arranged in alphabetical ranges of surnames. The bulk of the clippings date from the 1930s to the paper's closure in 1961. As was prevalent at the time that these files were created, women were generally referred to by their husbands' names. The Examiner staff often (but not always) labeled a woman's file under her husband's name modified by "Mrs." Researchers should also look for alternate spellings, pseudonyms, and maiden and married names. Arrangement The photographic and clippings morgue of the Hearst newspaper, the Los Angeles Examiner, consists of the photographic print and negative files--along with clippings files--maintained by the newspaper from its inception in 1903 until its closing in 1962. It contains approximately 1.4 million prints and negatives. The collection is divided into multiple parts: 7000.1--Portrait files; 7000.2--Subject files; 7000.3--Oversize prints; 7000.4--Subject clippings; and 7000.5--Biographical clippings. Each part of the collection is then divided into 26 series, one for each letter of the alphabet, with the exception of the 7000.3 set, which is divided into 2 series -- Oversize Portrait Files and Oversize Subject Files, with subseries for each letter of the alphabet.

  • 1 Almira S. Burnham (1840-1932)
    1 Almira S. Burnham (1840-1932) At the turn of the twentieth century, when the public reception of visual arts in Bloomington, Illinois could be characterized as “tepid,” or indeed, “positively cold,” and “comparatively few people … [knew] to what extent genuine and meritorious works of art” were produced in the city, there remained a commitment on the part of local artists—largely women—and the media to elevate the appreciation and patronage of painting to levels achieved by music and literature.1 One such artist, Almira S. Burnham (1840-1932) helped shape the figurative landscape for local working painters with her very own prolific and profitable, oil-painted landscapes and still lifes. Almira Sarah Ives was born on November 2, 1840 in Oswego, Kendall County, Illinois to parents Almon and Sarah (Ervin) Ives.2 Almon, Almira’s father, was born in Chautauqua County, New York and was one of the early settlers of Kendall County. He and his family moved to that county around 1834, where and when he engaged in farming.3 However, owing to ill health, Almon gave up farming and turned instead to a career in law. He was one of the first students to attend the Chicago Law School in 1847, and went on to make part of his living a real estate attorney.4 In June 1853, Almon, Sarah, and their nine children moved from Kendall County to Bloomington, where Almira resided for the rest of her life.5 Shortly after the family arrived, Almira’s mother, Sarah, died in 1854. In 1857, Almira’s father married Lucindia Barker.6 It is said, on the account of the early death of their mother, that Almira’s oldest sister Mary “became like a mother to her [eight] brothers and sisters.”7 Almon passed away in 1887 at the age of 72.8 Little else is known about Almira’s youthful experience in Bloomington prior to marrying Captain John H.

  • Raising the Revolutionaries' Banner 1775-1776
    Vol. 4 No. 3_____________________________________________ __July-August-September 2007 Raising the Revolutionaries’ Banner 1775-1776 19th century magic lanternslide depicting SC Patriot Sgt. William Jasper of the 2d South Carolina Continental Line, commanded by Col. William Moultrie, heroically re-raising the battered South Carolina standard over the parapet of the sand and palmetto log Fort Sullivan during the British naval bombardment of June 28-29, 1776. Mike Coker, the South Carolina Historical Society’s image expert, reports that this image is from a lanternslide painted by artists at the C. W. Briggs Company. The title on the slide is: “Sergeant Jasper at Ft. Moultrie, 1776”; it is a transparency, collodion on glass; size 3 1/4 X 4 inches. The Briggs were an American family of lanternists, slide painters and manufacturers. Daniel Briggs started painting and selling slides in 1850. Later the firm became C. (Caspear) W. Briggs and Co. in Philadelphia. Slides were made from stock negatives and colored by hand. (1850-1930s) This slide’s artist is unknown. Image is courtesy of the SCII Regiment. Artist Lucy Brown made a painting of this image in 1975, the original of which hangs in the main offices of the South Carolina Forestry Commission, 5500 Broad River Road, Columbia.
