Abstract

The press arrived in Espírito Santo in 1840 and upon the fall of Monarchy and the beginning of the Republic, the official press of Espírito Santo was born in 1890. This was a new phase for the capixaba printed media. 1929 was a prosperous year for the Official Press of Espírito Santo, with new shops and facilities of the newspaper Diário da Manhã located in Palace of Anchieta. They purchased two linotype machines and used typographic printing process instead of mobile linotype types, "instead of type by type, the ramifications started to be composed of full lines, merged together" (Villa-Boas, 2008, p. 99). It had perfectly equipped and large facilities for production and for the newspaper; a machinery section, comprising the most perfected bindery and formatting shop; in addition to a living room, a waiting room, offices for the editor-in-chief and for the commercial director, plus a writing room, luxuriously furnished (Mattedi, 2005, p. 41)
