On Sept. 29, 2023 (last Friday, for those of you reading in real time), the last Lost Art Press order shipped out of the Indiana warehouse. Today, a semi brought the first load of our books and tools from that third-party warehouse to our new warehouse in Covington, the Anthe Building. And there are two more truckloads to come, tomorrow and Wednesday.
John Hoffman, the business side of Lost Art Press, is on hand to oversee the changeover, and our shipping team, Mark Gilsdorf and Gabe Gavre, are loading all the books and tools into the warehouse, and keeping it all organized. They’ll do their best to also get orders out while the changeover happens, but there might be a delay of a day or two this week; we beg your patience and understanding.
Also, the new warehouse is our shipping operation only (for now); it is not open to the public. So if you’re planning to visit Lost Art Press (and we welcome all visitors!), please continue to come to the storefront at 837 Willard, Covington, Ky. 41011. We remain fully stocked at the storefront with all our book and tools. And if you don’t see us up front in the bench room, please knock – we’re likely around the corner at our computers.

I can remember the days when Chris was unloading boxes of books one at a time, and bringing them into his sunroom. In the rain. Times have certainly changed.
Congratulations on getting to this point! I’ve currently nowt on order, so shall not need to exercise patience, but had I had I woulda!
Cheers as always,

Hi Chris,
The waiting is never an issue for me as I understand that progress takes time, and always has a few glitches along the way. All good by me.
Cheers,

The pictures are neat enough. Throw some mesmerizing videos of things being loaded into the 2nd story and moved around to entertain those who have a delay in their order shipment because of the move. Would work for me. But, I’m simple …
That lift might have been too tall for the downstairs doorway…but it sure has some impressive lift.
Thats great!
Three Hoffman sightings in a year. That’s about as rare as Bigfoot and Nessie sightings. Add the picture is so clear too.
… And the picture…

Good location for future “factory warehouse sale”
