Albion hand press at The Bibliographical Press
September 15, 2014

The Bibliographical Press was founded in 1927 by University Printer Carl P. Rollins and Professor of English Arthur Ellicott Case as a way to teach students of early literature how the books they studied were physically created. With support from University Librarian Andrew Keough, The Bibliographical Press has been part of Sterling Memorial Library since its opening in 1931.

During the Nave Open House on September 18 from 3 to 5 pm, see a 19th century Albion hand press in action, printing a keepsake from hand set metal type. Keepsakes available while supplies last.
