On this day in 1917 Leonard and Virginia Woolf purchased a small, used handpress; it was delivered to Hogarth House, their West London home, a month later, and the Hogarth Press was born. Over the next three decades the Woolfs would refine their "rather eccentric and amusing printing antics", eventually publishing 525 titles over three decades, many of them by other influential modernists and most of them collector's items today.
