The Strickland Press was an anarchist publishing house in George Street, Glasgow which was established in 1939 by prominent member of the Anti-Parliamentary Communist Federation (APCF) Guy Aldred.
Aldred began work straight away buying premises and machinery and proceeded to reprint all his old pamphlets, before he had actually secured the money.
Through Tavistock's support, Aldred was able to begin work on his monthly The Word - periodical of the United Socialist Movement which was one of the key publications produced by the Strickland Press.
MacDonald acted as manager and bookkeeper of the company until her death in 1960, setting type and printing alongside Patrick who continued working at Strickland Press until its dissolution.
The George Street premises had to be vacated in 1962, when they were demolished to make way for expansion of the Royal College of Science and Technology, which later became the University of Strathclyde who now hold Aldred's archive.
