Book Description
Excerpt from A List of Books Printed at the Marion Press: Jamaica, Queensborough, New-York, 1896 1906 The original Marion Press was a hand-press set up in the attic of my house in October, 1896, and designed as a relief from ordinary suburban amusements. At the time I had no expectation of ever deriving from it any more than the joy of beholding the creations of my own hands, and in pursuance of that ideal the first six numbers in the following list were printed by lamplight after my regular employment at the DeVinne Press, New York, where for many years much of the fine book-making of that famous concern was in my care. In February, 1898, circumstances led me to resign that position and attempt to establish a profitable business of my own. A commodious shop was built, and a gas-engine and several power-presses, together with a large quantity of type and the necessary machinery for binding books, duly set up. As soon as we were ready for work it came, and without solicitation has continued to come in abundance from all parts of the country. At different times the type-setting has been in charge of my brothers Thomas J. and Charles H. Hopkins, assisted by Mr. W. F. Butler and others, to all of whom generous credit is due for their interest. Paper has been supplied by the Valley Paper Company, the Mittineague Paper Company, the Miller & Wright Paper Company, and the Japan Paper Company. The ink used has come in part from the F. H. Levey Co., and rollers from the O. J. Maigne Co. All engravings have been furnished by the Gill Engraving Co., and collotype prints by the late Edward Bierstadt have been used extensively. From lack of floor-space, in recent years much of the binding has been done by Stikeman & Co. and the Eugene C. Lewis Co. The press-work of the establishment from the beginning has been entirely my individual handiwork. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
