The Odhams Press was a British publishing house. Originally a journalist group in the 1890s, it was named Odham's Press Ltd. in 1920 when it merged with John Bull magazine. In 1937 he founded the first week in color, Woman, for which he created and managed a high-speed typography. The company also owned Ideal Home (founded in 1920) and the famous Horse and Hound equestrian magazine (purchased). Subsequently, Odhams expanded in books publishing (for example, Winston Churchill's Painting as a Pastime, and a complete William Shakespeare's works) and comics, including famous titles such as Wham! and Smash !. In the early 1960s it was bought by Mirror Group Newspapers, along with George Newnes Company and the Amalgamated Press; the three companies were finally merged to form the International Publishing Corporation (IPC).
