Description When the Press Annex of the Woman's Magazine building was remodeled and a second story added in 1908, Edward Gardner Lewis also added new printing equipment. One of the major additions was this Goss four-color printing press which cost $10,000. This press could print, paste and fold 10,000 four-color copies of "The Woman's Magazine" and "The Woman's Farm Journal" per hour. A similar photograph appeared in "The Woman's National Daily" in June, 1909 as part of a series called "Views of the Lewis Publishing Co.'s Great Plants in University City."
