"The Grabhorn, brothers, Robert and Edwin, began printing in their hometown of, Indianapolis around 1912. Their Indiana efforts never attracted, much notice, but in 1919 they moved to San Francisco and opened, the Grabhorn Press, which at first focused on advertising and, other job printing. Their handiwork attracted the interest of, the Book Club of California, an organization devoted to, artistic bookmaking. Through commissions for the Book Club, the, Grabhorn brothers turned their attention to the printing of, fine limited editions. The 1920s marked a period in American, culture when there was growing interest in books as a luxury, product and the Grabhorn Press became an integral part of the, fine press movement."
