Scope and Content

The records of the World Publishing Company include correspondence, financial records, photographs, slides, and various publications. Most of the materials are from the personal collection of the late Lillian Zevin, the ex-wife of Ben Zevin, former President of the World Publishing Company. They were given to the Department of Special Collections and Archives in 1986 along with a substantial collection of books printed by World. Those books have been cataloged in KentLINK and can be found by performing a SUBJECT searching on "World Publishing Company Collection."

Lillian Zevin's father was Alfred H. Cahen, the founder of the World Publishing Company as well as the Commercial Bookbinding Company of Cleveland, Ohio. The collection includes records from the time period of Commercial as well as World. But because this collection of records was a personal collection from an individual and not the company's official archive, there are some gaps in the record. However, this collection is still rich in documenting the history of the company and particularly significant are the financial records which are complete, as well as files on the high spots of World's publishing focus: Bibles and dictionaries.

Note to Researchers: Kent State University does not own copyright to World Publishing Company publications. The staff of Special Collections and Archives cannot perform this research for you and suggest you work with a copyright clearance firm.

History of the Company

1898 Alfred Cahen arrived in London after walking across Europe from Poland, learning the printing business in Poland, Russia, Germany, and Holland. In London he worked for a company that did phamplets, library bindings, and repaired manuscripts for museums and private collectors.

1902 Mr. Cahen left London and came to Ohio where he worked for the Saalfield Publishing Company in Akron.

1905 Mr. Cahen opened his own bindery in Cleveland, the beginning of the Commercial Bookbinding Company.

1912 Cylinder presses were added, giving the company printing as well as binding facilities.

1916 The company built its own plant at West 110th street and Western Avenue.

1920 Fire wiped out the whole plant.

1921 The plant was again in production.

1923 The second building was erected.

1928 A third building was added. Automatic machinery, unique in the industry, was designed and built by Mr. Cahen and later adopted by most large book manufacturers as well as the Government Printing establishment. Mr. Cahen's two sons, Herman and Julius, both engineers and graduates of Case Institute of Technology, helped build the various machines. The World Syndicate Publishing Company was aquired along with their offoce in New York City. The company began publishing Bibles, dictionaries, and children's books.

1929 The company went public with a stock issue. LINDBERG, THE LONE EAGLE, was written, printed and bound in only one week, becoming the first book on that historic flight and launching World into trade publishing.

1930 The company set up an office in Chicago.

1935 Ben D. Zevin joined the company.

1936 Another building was put up to house the growing plant.

1939 The reprint line, Tower Books at $.49, was launched.

1940 The company had become the largest publisher of Bibles and dictionaries in the United States.

1941 Work was started on Webster's New World Dictionary of the American Language.

1942 Forum Books, a $1.00 reprint line, was started, and the children's book line was growing much larger. During World War II, 17 million government-issued Bibles were distributed to the armed forces, and four out of every ten were made by World.

1945 Ben Zevin became president of the company.

1949 The Bruce Rogers World Bible was published in an edition limited to 975 copies.

1953 The College Edition of the New World Dictionary was published and quickly became the leading college dictionary in the country.

1963 The company was sold to Times Mirror, who eventually sold it to William Collins Sons, Ltd. When that company was disbanded in 1980, the dictionary division was sold to Simon & Schuster, who still publish Webster's New World Dictionary. The Bibles, childrens' and trade books were sold to various other companies, and some of these are still in print.
