Bible Institute of Los Angeles


The Bible Institute of Los Angeles (now Biola University) was founded in 1908 by Lyman Stewart, president of the Union Oil Company. The building shown was demolished in 1989.

The back of the card is printed with an invitation to a lecture by Dr. A.C. Dixon. Dr. Dixon was a noted Baptist pastor, Bible expositor and evangelist popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.



Tacoma Avenue Auction House - Washington State


The back of the card identifies the auctioneer as Fred Hofstettler who I found was the President and owner of Tacoma Ave. Auction House. The stamp box puts the date anywhere from 1924-1949.
