History
Established in 1887.
GVBP has existed since the late 1800's. It's not uncommon for us to see something we printed on vellum or canvas for a mine going back to that period. There have been very few owners in the 130 year old history. We are probably the 5th owners. We've owned the store for just less than 20 years. In 1999 we expanded to include the Lakeshore store & in 2001 expanded to include Truckee. All the owners have been local people responsible to the community. Nevada County could not have possibly grown without the technologies that GVBP has brought to the community.
When we purchased the business there were no computers, no web sites, no e-mail & one leased rotary phone. We brought technology to the business with all those additions. We were probably one of the first companies in Nevada County with a web site, FTP capabilities, e-mail and the ability to produce work for people around the world and from around the world for our Nevada County clients.
