Ford Pays $1500 For Discarded Old Press From Virginia Town
Henry Ford bought a rare old English printing press found in Boydton Virginia for 1500. A salesman urged the printer to contact Ford, who then arranged shipment to Dearborn for examination and display in Ford's museum. The press, among America’s first, had travelled from Williamsburg to Richmond and finally Boydton before sale.
