Grays Printing Press

Gray's Printing Press is where John Dunlap, who in 1776 printed the first copies of the American Declaration of Independence and published America's first newspaper - The Pennsylvania Packet, learnt his printing skills as an apprentice. Situated in the heart of Strabane, Gray's Printing Press looks like any other shop front. However, behind its elegant façade is the fascinating story of ink, galleys, presses and emigration, as this is where John Dunlap and James Wilson, grandfather of President Woodrow Wilson, are said to have learned their trade.
