The Printing Office Of Edes And Gill

I walked past this memorial hall after the Old North Church. Here is a vintage printing press with employees operating it. They can print a copy of the American Declaration of Independence for you, which is also very commemorative.

An eighteenth century print shop along the way of the Freedom Trail. It's seemingly unknown by the hoardes of tourists elsewhere and nearby, and yet a thoroughly charming - if breif - experience. While next door you can see a demonstration of 18th century chocolate making, in the printing press you can see the same workmanship that master printers have employed for the past 200 years. The shop was the site one of many newspapers, the Daily Gazette, that printed the Declaration of Independence. It's truly a gem among all the historical spots in Boston.
