Title Insurance and Trust Company of Los Angeles was a title insurance company that is remembered for their contributions to documenting local history. In addition to accumulating a notable collection of historic photographs now in the collection of the California Historical Society,[1] they commissioned W. W. Robinson (and others) to write a series of pamphlets about the histories of regions and neighborhoods of Southern California.[2] The Title Insurance and Trust Company building on Spring Street, used by the company from 1928 to 1977, is recognized as an architecturally significant building of downtown Los Angeles.[3]
