1234 Wentworth Avenue, Harold Bissner 1929

            Growing up in Glendale, California, the name "Harold Bissner" came up frequently in conversations with my dad, John A. Locke.  As Chief Engineer at Van de Kamp's Holland-Dutch Bakeries, Dad was involved in every decision regarding plant maintenance and construction as well as new projects and capital acquisitions.  Bissner was one of the chief advisers to Van de Kamp's in those days, and Dad greatly appreciated his advice and consent.

Bissner practiced architecture for sixty-five years throughout Southern California, specializing in Mediterranean motifs.  He also designed the hexadecagon shaped windmill for Van de Kamps Bakeries with a folded plate roof.  One of the restaurants still survives at the intersection of Huntington Drive and Santa Anita Avenue in Arcadia, California.
