Description:
The Review & Herald Printing Co., a printing and publishing plant for the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, stood on the corner of West Main Street and Washington Avenue. A story in the Feb. 27, 1916, Battle Creek Enquirer noted that the rise of the church coincided with removal of its publishing business from Rochester, N.Y., to Battle Creek in 1855. At its peak, the plant employed 300 and published in 18 languages. Fire destroyed the Review & Herald on Dec. 30, 1902, just 10 months after the original Battle Creek Sanitarium burned.
