Dawson's Book Shop

Dawson's Book Shop was a bookstore and small press that operated in Los Angeles beginning in 1905. Founded by Ernest Dawson (d. 1947), it was started as a new bookstore, but Dawson soon shifted his attention to rare books, and was known from that time on as a rare book dealer. The business was taken over after his death by his sons Glen Dawson and Muir Dawson. Dawson's specialized in rare books related to California and the West. Today, the shop operates online under the ownership of Michael Dawson. rdf:langString
