Bigger German Postcard Printers in business before 1900
The listing is not meant to be complete. All firms listed (in alphabetical order) either were contract printers for customers abroad and/or exported own cards with imprints in diff. languages. Some big in topo cards others specialised in greeting/subject cards, few did both. An asterisk (*) indicates that information on this firm was previously published in TPA. In case the issue in question is not in stock anymore, the article could probably be made available to interested persons.

Major German postcard printers of post-1900 years
Again not meant to be complete, only major companies mentioned (according to my actual knowledge). All companies listed (in aphabetical order) were big in ppc export. The firms from the pre-1900 list and still in business ARE NOT included again. Mentioned are new established firms and others that had been around earlier but had specialised on ppc production now. Topo- and/or greeting postcard printers.
