       variant: Norwood Press Co.;  formed in 1894 by two 
       companies coming together in Norwood, Mass., to form a 
       company that covered all aspects of the bookmaking process
       : J.S. Cushing & Co., which handled composition and 
       typesetting and Berwick & Smith Co., the pressroom. In 
       1897 the bindery E. Fleming & Co. (later known as C.B. 
       Fleming & Co.) joined the Norwood Press to complete the 
       process. The three companies remained independent, each 
       owning a one/third interest in the Norwood Press Co., 
       which existed as a real estate holding company that held 
       no authority over the production depts. of the three 
       companies. Norwood Press flourished, employing about 700 
       people by 1898. After WWII, production declined and by 
       1953 all the companies involved had closed)
