Summary

This National Register nomination provides an architectural and preservation-era source for the Mormon Print Shop. It describes the 1850 squared-log, board-and-batten building, records removal of hotel-era additions before nomination, and identifies the Beaver Island Historical Society as operating a summer-accessible local-history collection there.

Evidence and limits

The form is a retrospective nomination, not an original construction contract, 1850s press inventory, title chain, or current condition survey. Its historical interpretation cites later works and the Strang collection; individual Kingdom- era claims remain linked to their more specific sources.
