This Washington Press; No. 5 (25" x 39" platen) is part of our collection at the Cincinnati Type & Print Museum. It is currently in storage pending the renovation and expansion of our museum space.
The press was donated to the Cincinnati Type & Print Museum by the South Street Seaport Museum in 2021. From 1980 to 2020, it was part of the Bowne & Co. print shop collection. According to the SSSM, it was owned by Heidelberg-Eastern Inc., and later by Tri-Arts Press Inc., both of New York.
