In 1948, the Gaberbocchus Press was founded by Stefan and Franciszka Themerson. The Gaberbocchus Press is based on the unique partnership between them. The earliest books were printed at their home in London.
From 1957 to 1959 the basement Gaberbocchus Press office was turned into the Gaberbocchus Common Room, a meeting place for those interested in art and science. The Common Room was used for numerous discussions, film shows, plays and poetry readings.
At their request the Gaberbocchus Press was taken over in 1979 by the Dutch publishing house Uitgeverij De Harmonie.
