Lakeside Classics
Rooted In Tradition
What's in a name? For us, over 100 years of tradition. Our name derives from the Lakeside Classics, a tradition that started back in 1903. The year prior to that, T.E. Donnelley, son of the founder and president of RR Donnelley & Sons Company, received a set of straight-razors from a cutlery business. Its special appeal was that the blades were a product directly associated with the donor's cutlery business, not the type of frivolous and gaudy item that was the common business gift at the time. Inspired by that idea, he began to give special edition books to employees and friends of the Company every Christmas.
Just as great traditions evolve over time, so have we and starting in 2017, LSC Communications will carry on the legacy of the Lakeside Classics. Though the books are given solely as gifts, they are considered to be valuable among rare book collectors. In fact, Lakeside Classics is the only work still published under the Lakeside Press imprint, and is now the longest running, continuous series of books in America and possibly the world.
