Stanbrook Abbey collection, 1876-1978

 Series — Box: 1, Folder: 1.0 1

The Stanbrook Abbey Press Collection consists of approximately 300 items, including books, booklets, and ephemera printed at the Press. The collection also includes original drawings, manuscript leaves, and individual specimen sheets of printing, most of which are either mounted, in paper folders, or framed. Many of the items are religious texts, and are in English or Latin. Additionally, many materials are hand illuminated. While the Stanbrook Abbey Press still exists, the collection contains works covering the period from its first printed work in 1876 up to 1978. The collection was acquired by the University of Maryland at College Park over a period of several years, beginning in 1973.
