Biographical note on Robert Hutton
Robert (Bob) Hutton was born in Santa Monica in 1899, the son of Superior
Court Judge George H. Hutton and Dolores Egleston Hutton. He attended
Santa Monica High School, where he was student body president and an
actor in theater productions. He later became a writer and editor for
the Santa Monica Evening Outlook and taught evening journalism classes
at his alma mater. He was also director of the community theater in
Santa Monica in the 1930s.
Hutton spent time in Topanga Canyon since he was a child. His father
bought property in the early 1900s and the family used it as a weekend
retreat. Hutton married in 1926 and between 1934 and 1938 he built an
adobe house in the canyon. Later he opened a public shooting range that
was active until the property was sold in the late 1960s. Hutton died in
1980.

She lived there alone in a canvas tent with a wooden floor. Later Miss
Sletton came to Santa Monica Canyon and was principal of Canyon School
built in 1892. I lived there next door to the Canyon School and as a
young boy would wander over to the school and sit on the steps to watch
the children play. Miss Sletton would drag me home and tell my mother to
keep me there because I was not old enough to go to school. When Theresa
died, her brother gave me the album."

George W. Hazard negatives of Los Angeles and
vicinity.
Approximately 1890-1908
Physical Description: 407 negatives
Biographical Note
George W. Hazard (1842-1914) was a historian and amateur photographer who
spent most of his life compiling a history of Los Angeles, his home for
sixty years. Born in Evanston, Illinois, he came to the city with his
family in 1853. His brother, Henry T. Hazard, became an early mayor of
Los Angeles. George Hazard was the personal friend of many of the
pioneers of the city, who provided stories and other materials for his
historical research. He became known as an authority on local historical
matters and was a charter member of the Pioneer Society and other
historical organizations. He hoped to write a history of the city,
illustrated with many of the
photographs
he had made and collected, but
he died before it was published. The editor Verne Dyson, whom he worked
with, took over his
photograph
collection and manuscripts at his death
in 1914.
Scope and Content Note
Hazard traveled throughout Los Angeles and neighboring cities
photographing older buildings and locations of local significance that
were not often, if ever, photographed by others. He wrote descriptive
titles in ink directly on some of his negatives, often naming current or
former homeowners. There are views of adobes, small businesses, city
buildings, and open rancho land, with a few views of people. A portion
of these negatives are unidentified and are grouped together at the end
of this list.
See also Box 97: Later prints of
photographs

Powell Press Service negatives of Santa Monica and

Approximately late 1920s-1930s
Scope and Content Note
The Powell Press Service was a Los Angeles organization that produced
photographs
and news releases for publicity purposes and press
syndicates. Eyre Powell, press agent, was director of the service, which
he began in 1926. Besides covering events, Powell conceived whimsical
publicity stunts for Santa Monica and other beach cities, often staged
with models and props. Some of the images in this group are staged
scenes intended to market beach culture, and others are straightforward
views of schools, students, parades and community life.
A large selection (but not all) of these negatives have been digitized
and can be viewed in the Huntington Digital Library.

Bob Plunkett film negatives.
Approximately 1928-1953
Scope and Content Note
Bob Plunkett was a Los Angeles photographer and artist who published
souvenir photographic postcards under his own name as well as the
business names "Angeleno Photo Service " and "Angeleno Post Card Co."
The credit "Brookwell Photo" sometimes appears on images that Plunkett
published, but little information about this person is known. (In a
conversation with Ernest Marquez in 2015, Marquez said that Brookwell
worked for Plunkett.) Later in his life, Plunkett worked as an
illustrator for Disney and published postcards of his Disney artwork
that were sold at Disneyland from 1957 to 1966.
Many of these negatives have hand-lettered identifications painted on the
front of the image, for re-producing on postcards. There are some
original envelopes from Plunkett's business and a few pieces of
correspondence (see Box 95). There are also some examples of his
finished photographic postcards throughout the Series 01 (prints)
files.
The Bob Plunkett negatives have all been digitized and can be viewed in
the Huntington Digital Library.
