The Dolmen Press was founded by Liam and Josephine Miller in 1951. The Press operated in Dublin from 1951 until Liam Miller's death in 1987. The printing division was opened in the late 1950s as an additional revenue source, and was eventually shut down in 1979. This series consists of correspondence, typescripts, proofs, art, galleys, reviews, paste-ups, dust jackets, samples and other information relating to the printing division of the Dolmen Press and the free-lance design work of Liam Miller. The documents range in date from 1955 to 1987, with the bulk of the documents dating from the mid-1960s to the late 1970s. All materials in this series dated after the 1979 closing of the printing division are solely the design work of Liam Miller.
