Will Wilke illustrates Old San Francisco

Item Details

Description

Heading: (California - San Francisco)
Author: O'Day, Edward F. & Will Wilke
Title: Old San Francisco: A series of twenty-six articles on the famous and historic spots of old San Francisco, reprinted from the San Francisco news...
Place Published: [San Francisco]
Publisher:[San Francisco News]
Date Published: 1930
Description:

28 leaves, printed on rectos only. Illustrated from drawings by Will Wilke. 36.5x20 cm (14½x7¾"), wrappers, stapled at top of leaves.

Articles reprinted from the San Francisco News. OCLC/WorldCat lists seven copies.

The Daily News, later titled The San Francisco News, was a newspaper published in San Francisco, California. It was founded in 1903 by E. W. Scripps as a four-page penny paper. Edward Willis Scripps was an American newspaper publisher and, together with his sister Ellen Browning Scripps, founder of The E. W. Scripps Company, a diversified media conglomerate, and United Press news service. It became United Press International (UPI) when International News Service (INS) merged with United Press in 1958.

In its early years, it was the smallest of the several newspapers in San Francisco. It advertised itself as the "friend of the working man." It was distributed only in working class districts: Mission District, Skid Row, South of the Slot. It specialized in short, easy-to-read stories one to two paragraphs long. After the 1906 earthquake, it operated out of a former 720 sq ft "relief house". In 1919 it had a circulation of about 18,000. It changed its name to The San Francisco News in 1927, and in August 1959 merged with Hearst's The Call Bulletin to form the San Francisco News-Call Bulletin.
