This series contains publications of, and works relating to, the Village Press, operated by Frederic W. and Bertha M. Goudy at Park Ridge, Illinois, 1903-1904; Hingham, Massachusetts, 1904-1906; New York City, 1906-1913; Forest Hills Gardens, New York, 1913-1923; and Marlborough, New York, from 1923 until a fire on 29 January 1939 destroyed Goudy's workshop and foundry at "Deepdene". The bulk of the series consists of printings and publications of the press--primarily broadsides, handbills, and other short works, as well as proofs and imperfect printer's sheets of sections of several larger works--and keepsakes of the "Pilgrimage to Deepdene", the celebration of the 35th anniversary of the founding of the press, held at Marlborough on 23 July 1938.
