Woellmer Type Foundry
The Wöllmer Type Foundry was founded by black-letter and script-type designer Wilhelm Wöllmer. Wöllmer was first an assistant in the commercial-type foundry of Eduard Haenel before founding his own company in 1854 in Berlin as a commercial printing business. Ten years later, in 1864, he supplemented the business by opening a type foundry which remained in operation until 1938.
