Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum celebrates a decade as the only museum dedicated to the preservation, study, production and printing of wood type.
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.
Hamilton began producing type in 1880 and within 20 years became the largest provider in the United States.
Today, volunteers of the Two Rivers Historical Society preserve this legacy and host educational demonstrations, field trips, workshops and offer opportunities with this vast wood type collection.
The museum also illustrates antique printing technologies including the production of hot metal type, hand-operated printing presses, tools of the craft and rare type specimen catalogs.
"Hamilton has hosted a terrific range of artists, printers and designers in the 10 years since we opened our museum," commented Jim Van Lanen, founder of the museum.
"Our anniversary will be a chance to reconnect and celebrate."
