Bowne & Co. weaves together New York’s maritime and printing heritage through the Bowne & Co. Printing Office––a workspace that continues the age-old tradition of job (or small batch) printing using historic presses from South Street Seaport Museum’s working collection––and Bowne & Co. Stationers, a 19th century-style gift emporium selling a carefully-curated selection of unique wares including books, stationery, and oddities, as well as house-designed and -printed paper goods.
In addition to visiting the Bowne & Co., Stationers shop and ordering custom letterpress printing, visitors can also participate in seasonal and monthly activities, workshops, and open houses.
