How We Got Started

In 1892, Henry B. (Benton, or “Ben”) South, along with three partners, started the Tube City Printing Company, which soon became a highly respected printing business in the community. It has remained, with only one name change, to the present day.

In 1896, Boyd and Pitts retired from the business, and two years later Craig retired. South remained as sole proprietor, renaming the business “H. B. South Printers.”

Upon Henry's Death, his sons, Harry, Arthur and William took over the business. In the early 1960's Arthur passed away. Harry and William ran the business until the early 1980's. At this time, Jim South, Harry's Son, purchased the business from Harry and William. He remained the Sole Proprietor until 1992 when Jim's sons, Mark and Marlin, took over the business.

H. B. South, Printer changed it's name in 2010 when the company became a corporation. It has been passed on from father to sons for four generations. Marlin South is the current owner.

Sorry to say, but print is declining. I equate it with the movie and music industries. There is still a demand for music and movies, but not a demand for CDs, DVDs, video tapes and audio tapes.

There is still a demand for music and movies, but not a demand for CDs, DVDs, video tapes and audio tapes. We still have a demand for news articles and information, but not in the printed form. If print was a growing industry, we would not have so many newspapers and print shops closing their doors. I do not think print will go away completely, but it definitely is not needed as much now as in the past.
