By David Hamlin and Brett Arena Since 1934, the Original Farmers Market at 3rd & Fairfax in Los Angeles has been at the center of the citys history, from the Great Depression to todays Great Recession. It has endured as one of LAs most treasured locations, drawing visitors not only from the city it helped mold but also millions of tourists from around the world. Authors David Hamlin and Brett Arena capture the Markets quirky beginnings, its enduring personality, popularity and eccentricities in a new book from Arcadia Publishings Image of America series. With the help of hundreds of rare archival photos made available from the Farmers Market owner, the A. F. Gilmore Company, the authors trace the evolution of the property through a rich history that reads more like fiction than real history. 128 pages, paperback.
Part of Mattel's 2020 Premium Vintage Oil series, this 1937 "Haulin Gas" Hot Wheels collectible is reminiscent of The Gilmore Oil Company's colorful and historic legacy as a leading distributor of petroleum products on the West Coast. It's a must-have for hot wheels collectors and petrolania enthusiasts.
Our unisex navy BELLA + CANVAS t-shirt features the Market's iconic green grocery cart on the front and the words "Los Angeles Farmers Market" on the back. Made in the US.
