Mackmurdo had sought advice on setting up The Hobby Horse from the prolific printer Emery Walker, whose 1888 lecture was to become the inspiration for William Morris' own Kelmscott Press.
Like the later private presses, The Hobby Horse can be considered as a work of art in itself, self-consciously upholding the craft and design standards it wished to perpetuate - employing the artist rather than the trade printer and adopting traditional methods of book production such as handmade paper and woodcut illustrations.
