Located in Homestead, one of the original Amana colonies, the Amana Print Shop & Bindery is equipped with a Chandler & Price jobber press and a Merganthaler Linotype typesetting machine. The Amana colonies have a long printing tradition, and printed over 100 books between 1865 and 1930. In addition to books, Amana printers produced church service notices, pamphlets, medicine bottle labels, and wedding invitations. Often, UICB associates and students give public demonstrations summer Saturdays. Check our News & Events section for more details.
