Graphic Arts Center was one of the Northwest's largest book publishers,{{citation needed|date=May 2018}} publishing about 40 books annually and selling over 500 titles to the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom and Europe.[1] Using three imprints — Graphic Arts Books, Alaska Northwest Books, and WestWinds Press — Graphic Arts published and distributed books that focused on lifestyle and place.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}} The company filed for bankruptcy and was liquidated in November 2009.[2] HistoryGraphic Arts Center Publishing started in 1967 as a division of Graphic Arts Center, Inc., Oregon's largest printer. The publishing house was one of the pioneers in publishing large-format, full-color print books. These became known as "coffee table books." Their first book in this format was the popular Oregon, a book of photographs by Ray Atkeson, which became a series that includes Oregon 2 and Oregon III.[3] In the mid 1980s, Graphic Arts began to diversify from photographic books into subjects like children's fiction and non-fiction. In 1993, Graphic Arts acquired Alaska Northwest Books, the largest trade book publisher in the Alaskan market.{{citation needed|date=April 2013}} In 1998, Graphic Arts started its third imprint, WestWinds Press, to launch a series of Western titles and photography books. In April 2006, the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.[1] In October 2006, Ingram Content Group invested in Graphic Arts as part of a bankruptcy reorganization plan.[4] In January 2007, Graphic Arts Center Publishing Company emerged from bankruptcy.[5] The company again filed for bankruptcy in order to liquidate in November 2009.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web|last=Milliot |first=Jim |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=Graphic Arts Files Chapter 11 |work= |publisher=Publishers Weekly |date=April 10, 2006 |url=http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6323509.html |doi= |accessdate=2006-11-17 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060411200559/http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6323509.html |archivedate=April 11, 2006 }} {{oregon-company-stub}}{{US-publish-company-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://www.oregonlive.com/business/index.ssf/2009/11/portland_coffee_table_book_pub.html|title=Portland coffee table book publisher files for bankruptcy|last=Hunsberger|first=Brent|date=November 16, 2009|work=The Oregonian|accessdate=2018-05-04}} 3. ^{{cite web | last = | first = | title = Publishing in the Northwest | work = | publisher = Open Spaces Quarterly | date = | url = http://www.open-spaces.com/article-v2n3-publishing.php | accessdate = 2006-11-17 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20061017212909/http://www.open-spaces.com/article-v2n3-publishing.php | archive-date = 2006-10-17 | dead-url = yes | df = }} 4. ^{{cite web| last = Maul | first = Kimberly | title = Ingram Invests in Graphic Arts Center Publishing Company| publisher = The Book Standard | date = October 23, 2006 | url = http://thebookstandard.com/bookstandard/news/publisher/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003286910 | accessdate = 2006-11-20}}{{dead link|date=April 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|last=Bryson |first=George |title=Regional publisher closes book on Chapter 11 |work=Anchorage Daily News |date=April 21, 2007 |url=http://www.adn.com/life/arts/story/8813145p-8713928c.html |accessdate=2007-05-23 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070424052214/http://www.adn.com/life/arts/story/8813145p-8713928c.html |archivedate=2007-04-24 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 8 : Companies based in Portland, Oregon|Publishing companies established in 1968|Book publishing companies based in Oregon|Companies that filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2006|Privately held companies based in Oregon|Defunct companies based in Oregon|1968 establishments in Oregon|2009 disestablishments in Oregon |
