What i know about the American Lithographic Company.
The company was founded by Joseph P Knapp in 1892 and quickly grew to be the largest printer in the United States (80% of the United States market).
The company was purchased by Consolidated Graphics in 1930. The company eventually was absorbed into the Crowell-Collier Publishing Company.
The company was involved in a major swindle ($100,000.00 lawsuit filed by company president William Ottman) against some folks from Great Britain in the twenties, that may have led to the company being taken over.
In 1892, when American Lithographic Co. (ALC) bought up several of the major Litho. Co.....Geo. Harris & Sons, Litho. inPhiladelphia was one of the major ones.
The original 13-story building in New York City still stands at 230 Park Ave South; and, above its main entrance engravedin stone on the transom is the "American Lithographic Company".
