About Us

City Blue circa 1930's

History

Started in 1926, City Blue Print Company specialized in architectural and construction printing services, such as blueprinting and photography. City Blue Print Company merged with R.A. Ellis in 1993. R.A. Ellis produced digital imaging, precision photography and large color graphics for ad agencies, printers, and corporate marketing departments. In 2005 City Blue purchased the offset printing company Classic Image Associates. All three companies are located at our 16,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art printing facility at 68 Scio St. in Downtown Rochester.
