Victoria Press

The Victoria Press was a printing press started by Emily Faithfull, along with other feminist activists, in London, on March 26, 1860.[1] The press, named after Queen Victoria, was created as a way to allow more women into the printing field.[2] In 1867 management of the press was given by Faithfull to William Wilfred Head, a partner in the press.[3] Head continued to print pieces advocating for the employment of women until 1882, even after buying Faithfull out in 1869.[4]
