Title: Atlas Of The City Of Cincinnati, Ohio; From Official Records, Private Plans & Actual Surveys Publication: New York: E. Robinson, 1884 Edition: Ward 12, 13, 14 / Section 13 & 19 Description: Paper. Findlay Market and the original Proctor & Gamble Factory in the West End of Cincinnati, Plate 10, from the Atlas Of The City of Cincinnati, Ohio, published in 1884 by Elisha Robinson and R.H. Pidgeon of New York. The hand-colored, double-page sheets were engraved by A.H. Mueller of Philadelphia, lithography by the firm of F. Bourquin of Philadelphia. Individual plates measure 29" x 20", with notable wear along margins, previously folded along center line. A few thumb prints along edge. Each plate shows the notable landowners, the major throughways, rivers and plot maps for future residential developments. Near fine. This plate features the following neighborhoods in Hamilton County, Ohio: East End of downtown Cincinnati, Over-The-Rhine, and Findlay Market. This map also features the original Procter & Gamble (P&G) factory, established in 1837 by William Procter, a candle maker, and James Gamble, a soap maker. The factory was located on the banks of Mill Creek, near Central Avenue, in the West End of downtown Cincinnati. Cincinnati's position as a growing industrial hub with easy access to raw materials, including animal fat for soap and candles, made it an ideal location. As the company grew, it purchased the Ohio Candle Company on Central Avenue. This purchase was critical to the success of P&G, when the original factory caught fire on January 7, 1884, and operations were moved to the former Ohio Candle Company building.
