There are plenty of newspaper articles which mention Bert Kinner, his aircraft and their motors. Here are just a couple. The first is from the November 11, 1927 edition of the Santa Ana Register. It tells of a possible move of the company to Fullerton.

This article is primarily about the America Aircraft Company moving to a temporary location in Huntington Beach, but it also gives some interesting background about Kinner's contributions to early aviation. It's from the October 3, 1940 edition of the Santa Ana Register.
NB. I've rearranged the layout to better fit the screen.
