Howard Iron Works Printing Museum
The Howard Iron Works Museum and Restoration facility is a lifelong dream of Liana and Nick Howard. The Howards are custodians of Howard Graphic Equipment Ltd., a company that is a leading edge supplier and rebuilder of printing and converting equipment. The business continues into its 53rd year having started in 1967. Together they have assembled a diverse and important collection featuring machinery and materials from the period 1830 to mid 20th century. Each piece represents a key building block in the advancement of the printing processes. However, for Nick and Liana Howard, the ultimate goal is even more paramount: to realize the Howards' real mission to use the museum for philanthropic purposes.
