About the Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum:
With 1.5 million pieces of wood type and more than 1,000 styles and sizes of patterns, Hamilton’s collection is one of the premier wood type collections in the world. In addition to wood type, the Museum is home to an amazing array of advertising cuts from the 1930s through the 1970s, and all of the equipment necessary to make wood type and print with it, as well as equipment used in the production of hot metal type, tools of the craft and rare type specimen catalogs.
The Hamilton Museum is a non-profit and is looking to raise $250,000 to help move its 30,000 square feet of printing history.
