Fine Journals, Notebooks and Gifts since 1928

For nearly 100 years, it has been the mission of Peter Pauper Press to create fine books and gifts that sold "at prices even a pauper could afford." Peter Pauper Press is remarkable in that, as a leading twenty-first century publishing company, it remains family owned and operated. Through the years, the family's vision for the company has remained a simple one: "To honor our founders’ legacy -- and our customers’ expectations -- of beauty, quality, and value."

The Peter Pauper Press Story

PPP Story

In 1928, at the age of twenty-two, Peter Beilenson began printing books on a small press in the basement of his parents’ home in Larchmont, New York. Peter -- and later, his wife, Edna -- sought to create fine books that sold at prices even a pauper could afford. Today, still family owned and operated, Peter Pauper Press continues to honour their founders’ legacy - and their customers’ expectations - of beauty, quality, and value.
