Description:
Founded by John D. Larkin in 1875, the Larkin Company started out as a soap factory and became a mail-order house to rival Sears & Roebuck, selling furniture, china, groceries, paint, wallpaper, and dry goods. Largely defunct by the end of the Great Depression, Larkin is best remembered today for hiring a young Frank Lloyd Wright to design its Administration Building, an architectural landmark that was demolished in 1950.
Featured here are books, theses, dissertations, manuscripts, company records, and similar print sources on the company and its subsidiaries in the collection of the Buffalo & Erie County Historical Society.
Not listed are our many Larkin photographs, catalogs, newspaper articles, premium lists, trade cards, postcards, and other small-scale ephemera.
