I have tuned a few of these over the past forty years, but have never found much information on the maker.

1875 Established in Berlin.
1879 Received an exhibition medal.
1911 Listed by Alfred Dolge “Pianos and their makers”.
1928 Still going.

I would be very interested to know how the piano's date was arrived at. Lubitz seems to have received an exhibition medal in 1879, which is represented on his pianos. This does not mean that the piano was made in 1879, it would be after that exhibition. See
