Located on East 55th Street, this building marks the original location of the Call and Post headquarters. While the headquarters moved to its own building on 105th at Chester Avenue in 1959, this location was featured prominently in Allen E. Cole's photos. Cole was one of the major forces behind the Call and Post's rise in prominence, creating idealized images of an African American society which worked well with the ideas presented in Walker's opinion section "Down the Long Road." This building was prominently featured in the paper's Newspaper Boys competition, an annual event that awarded Paperboys for subscriptions on their route. The connection to the competition helped the newspaper grow as members of the community tried to support their paperboys. | Source: Cleveland Memory Project, Cleveland State University Library Special CollectionsDownload Original File
