The company C. Schrader's successor was originally founded at the time of the Electorate of Hanover , when the entrepreneur CG Schrader or Johann Georg Schrader on May 12, 1795 in the Calenberger Neustadt - at that time an independent city for more than a quarter of a century until it was united with Hanover - his " defeat of wallpaper, floor coverings , paper, paints, paintings, copperplate engravings and all writing materials" opened. The first business address was the house at Lange Strasse 6 at the corner of Inselstrasse Lage

In 1836 the business was passed on to the company's founder's son, Carl Schrader , who continued it under the old company name before the new owners Theodor Schneeweiß and Hermann Oppermann took over in 1850. From then on, the company, which had meanwhile been elevated to Hof - Kunsthandlung in Hanover, operated as C. Schrader's successor . The unmarried clerk Carl Christian Theodor Schneeweiß (born May 13, 1822 in Rinteln ; † March 30, 1884) owned property of 1,000 Thalers before he emigrated from the Principality of Schaumburg-Lippe , before moving to Hanover on April 29, 1850 went and placed C. Schrader's successor there with Hermann Oppermann.

As purveyor to King George V's court , C. Schrader's successor was one of the publicly visible subscribers to the picture cycle History of the German People by the painter Karl Heinrich Hermann in the Allgemeine Zeitung in 1853 , for the 15 copper engravings directly in "[...] the Seineer's private library Majesty of the King of Hanover ”.

When the partner Oppermann left after only a few years, Theodor Schneeweiß became the sole "owner" of the court art, paper and map dealership on April 1, 1856.

At around the same time, the chemist Carl Hornemann had added a newly established "art publishing business" to his existing paint factory in 1855, which, according to a business circular, he sold to C. Schrader's successor on July 1, 1861, about six years later .

In 1876, Theoder Schneeweiß moved the business to what was then the Bahnhofstrasse 14 building , where his son-in-law Johannes Schlöbcke took over the company after his death on March 30, 1884 . location

In the following year, 1885, Schlöbcke relocated the business to larger premises in the corner building at Bahnhofstrasse 1 , where - with steadily increasing sales - he was able to expand primarily the mail order business. One of the customers of the envelopes manufactured by C. Schrader's successors under the Opaque brand was the painter, poet and caricaturist Wilhelm Busch . location

Within a decade, the premises at Bahnhofstrasse 1 were soon too cramped, so that Schlöbcke, as the client, commissioned the architect Karl Hantelmann to build his own semi-detached house with a communal courtyard at Bahnhofstrasse 6/7 : The Schlöbcke office building was finally ready in 1899 . location

In the Schlöbcke office building, the art trade, which was practiced until the end of the 19th century, was given up in order to instead intensify the specialist areas of paper, painting and drawing utensils. In 1901, Schlöbcke accepted his colleague Theodor Gärtner , who had been working since 1880 and who had already received power of attorney in 1891 , as a partner in C. Schrader's successor . After Johannes Schlöbcke left in 1906, Gärtner was initially the sole owner, gave his employee Friedrich Leiberich power of attorney in the same year and took him on as a partner in the company on July 1, 1907.

After the extensive destruction caused by the air raids on Hanover in World War II , Wolfgang Wallraven became the owner of C. Schrader's successor in 1960. He also wrote the illustrated commemorative publication for the company's 175th anniversary, which was published in bound form on May 12, 1970.
