In 1902, Elizabeth and her sister Lily Yeats joined Evelyn Gleeson in establishing a craft studio at Dundrum, near Dublin, called Dun Emer.
[1][2] While living in London, Elizabeth Yeats had been part of the circle of William Morris, and had been inspired by his printing work.
[11] The texts it published were written or selected by W. B. Yeats,[12] who was the press's literary editor and who also subsidized its operations, which lacked profitability.
[13] In its prospectus issued early in 1903, the press boasted of "a good eighteenth century fount of type" and "paper made of linen rags and without bleaching chemicals".
[14] As well as books, the Press also printed broadsheets designed by Jack Yeats, and hand-coloured greeting cards.
