The Goes Lithographing
Company was founded in 1879. The company moved from Chicago years ago and is now located in Delavan, Wisconsin. They no longer print posters, but they do still print stock certificates and awards. Reportedly, Goes donated some original litho stones and printing
presses to The Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY,
Stout State University, Menominee Wisconsin Graphics School, The Art
Institute of Chicago and the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, DC.
Maybe there is a hidden stash of magic posters left in the Chicago factory just waiting to be found. We will never know...
Brush poster printed by Goes.
P.S. - The Dover poster book I had for sale is SOLD.
