An unidentified man and woman work with the printing press in the print shop of the New Glarus Post, in New Glarus. When this photo was taken around 1910, John Theiler was publishing a German-language newspaper and then started the English-language Post in 1912. In 1917, his son Arthur merged the two papers. This printing press, along with a large collection of other original print shop equipment, is now on display at the Swiss Historical Village Museum in New Glarus.
