Woellmer Type Foundry


The Wöllmer Type Foundry was founded by black-letter and script type designer Wilhelm Wöllmer. Wöllmer was first assistant in the commercial type foundry of Eduard Haenel. Wöllmer founded 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.
