Rise of the Gilliss Press from a home workshop to a renowned NY firm
The Gilliss brothers began in 1860 with a $35 novelty press in a fourth floor room on West Forty-eighth Street. They expanded through Nassau and Thirteenth Street locations, produced church programs for St Thomas's, and grew into Gilliss Brothers & Turnure, later Gilliss Press. The firm published art books, fine editions, and notable works for Harper & Brothers and William Loring Andrews, becoming a major 19th century New York printing house.
