The Pickwick Corporation

[2] The company was named for its office location, the 1904 San Diego Pickwick Theater, built by Louis J. Wilde, primarily for vaudeville but converted to movies in 1922 and demolished in 1926.

[3][4][5][6] The Pickwick Stage Lines[2] was one of the major bus companies incorporated into the Greyhound system in its formative years.

Pickwick Airways[9][10] operated a fleet of Bach 3-CT-6 "air yachts", initially between San Diego and Los Angeles, subsequently between San Francisco and Los Angeles, with service eventually extending as far as Mexico City.

In 1930, a large Pickwick Hotel and bus terminal was built by the company and opened in Kansas City.

[20] The Pickwick Hotel in Los Angeles was located at 833 South Grand, adjacent to the Trinity Auditorium Building.
