Burdge--Promoting Corporate Identities

The 20,000-square-foot facility Burdge occupies today is a far cry from the small storefront shop where it began in downtown Los Angeles. In the early days, Charles would hand-engrave copper printing plates, and policemen on horseback would have to disperse crowds gathered to watch the artistry.

Today, the same hands-on craftsmanship can be seen in many of the company's products, hand-engraved with dies created on the premises.
