Heininger, Publisher of View Albums, Historical References and Guides, of All the Principal Points on the Pacific Coast. Special Designs of Albums and Business Cards to Order. Manufacturer of Walking Canes and Fancy Novelties, of Native Woods and Big Tree Bark. San Francisco, Cal." C. P. Heininger & Company was founded by Charles Heininger (1857-1943) in 1881 or 1882. Heininger was originally from Philadelphia but moved to San Francisco in 1881. He began his business as a dealer of smoking pipes but ventured into the publishing industry by 1885. In 1889, Heininger resumed his business in manufacturing and importing pipes and smoking accessories which continued until at least 1924. Heininger also sold "novelties" as seen in the back pastedown of this book. It is unclear how long C. P. Heininger & Co. was active, but the company appears to have been open until at least 1926 or 1927.
