In March, 2012 we became part of the McEvoy Group, a San Francisco-based media company. Fellow group members include Chronicle Books, Princeton Architectural Press, and becker&meyer! We are proud to be in such good company and eager to see what the future brings.
Our new company name is officially Galison Publishing LLC, doing business as Galison/Mudpuppy. In May, Bill Miller was named President of Galison Publishing.
Galison was founded in 1979 to work with museums to make their imagery widely available in the form of well-designed and manufactured paper products. We published some books and calendars before focusing on boxed notecards, fine art stationery, greeting cards, personalized Christmas cards (for individuals and businesses), note cards, journals, and other gift products for writers. Until recently, we did business as GMG Publishing, and were known in the trade as Galison Books, Galison, or Galison/Mudpuppy.
Although we use a lot of fresh, contemporary designs, we maintain a core group of products using fine art images, and both Galison and Mudpuppy products are popular in museum stores. Our fine art stationery is also found in the best gift, stationery, book, and department stores.
Mudpuppy Press was launched in 1992. From an early specialization in puzzles, we expanded to our current award-winning offering of puzzles, journals, diaries, educational games, toys, and stationery gifts for children and the young at heart.
1993 saw the introduction of Galison's Holiday Time line of cards and gifts. Our Christmas and seasonal cards feature unique but accessible imagery and work well for both personal and corporate use. Please e-mail
sales@galison.com.
We're also happy to discuss adapting or creating personalized Christmas cards for you or your business.
Over the years, Galison has worked with museums, non-profit organizations, and businesses to create private label custom projects. From imprinting existing journals to creating something new, this segment of our business continues to grow!
