This museum, located in the former home of a Roycroft artisan, chronicles the life and work of Elbert Hubbard. Hubbard acquired a print shop in East Aurora in 1895 and became well known for the beautiful books he produced. He was one of the first printers to make use of white space and endorsements in his advertising. He was the founder of the Roycroft Arts and Crafts community which had over 500 craftsmen in the late 1800's and early 1900's. The museum has a variety of artifacts which belonged to Hubbard and his craftsmen, including furniture, leatherwork and rare books. – Christine A. Smyczynski
