Nicholas Hasselbach[a] (c. 1728[b] – 1769 or 1770) was a German-American printer, part of a mass migration from Germany who emigrated to Philadelphia in the mid-18th century.[4][c] He operated a paper mill near Philadelphia, after which he removed to Baltimore, Maryland, where he established that city's first printing press.[4][5][7] He was one of the few German speaking printers who that wanted to print religious literature in German. Hasselbach died unexpectedly as a relatively young man, leaving only one known example of his printing, a small book, now owned by a private collector.[8][6]
