American Lithographic Co. in New York City. This 13-story building stands at the corner of 19th Street & Park Avenue South.
The OBAK (T212) cards were printed by the Schmidt Lithographic Co. in San Francisco. The building stands at 2nd & Bryant Steets.
When you are visiting in San Fran, be sure to check-out the Schmidt Litho. museum.
Tis a real shame that American Litho. never archived their beautiful stuff in the form of a museum.

I always like seeing this picture, thanks for showing that.
I was wondering if it was possible that, even though these lithographic companies were on the opposite sides of the country from each other, could their presses have been manufactured by the same company?
I'm not saying they were, just wondering about it. Does anyone know? Thanks-
