The Printing Stewards

The Printing Stewards are a unique Patreon community focused on the crucial task of preserving typographic history. Their primary project is the careful and meticulous preservation of the Gregory Jackson Walters Typographic Archive, a significant collection that would otherwise be at risk of being lost to time. Since launching in October 2022, they've cultivated a strong community of 158 members, with 105 actively supporting their work through Patreon. This support has generated an estimated $533 in monthly earnings, a testament to the importance of their mission. The Printing Stewards stand apart through their singular focus on a specific, historically significant archive, ensuring its accessibility and longevity for future generations. Their work contributes to a broader understanding and appreciation of the art and craft of typography, while simultaneously acting as a vital repository for this precious historical resource. The community they've built reflects a shared passion for typography and its lasting impact on communication and design.
