National Capital Press (c. 1911 - 1977)

National Capital Press (c. 1911 - 1977) was a publisher based in Washington, D.C., which, as its name and location suggest, focused on works relating to public administration, infrastructure, housing, education, and other matters relevant to government. Some of its publications were made at the behest of the government or for the government itself, such as printings of Congressional Records. In 1931, the company opened a large art deco warehouse at 301 N. St. NE, which allowed it to become among the most prolific printers operating in the nation's capital. The building still stands and was recently renovated to accommodate housing units.
