history

When Heinrich Lambert Scheid bought the printing works, which had been in existence since 1842, with buildings at Mehlgasse 15 and Gemüsegasse 14, from his teacher H. Hildenbrandt, the printed products were still all made by hand. The individual lines were set in lead letters and each printed sheet was placed individually in the hand-operated printing press . In the following years Scheid modernized the company by using the newly developed line setting and casting machines and expanded it by purchasing another house at Gemüsegasse 12. Two sons of his eight children in total: Heinrich August (1884–1964) and Adolf Lambert Scheid also learned the printing trade from their father. Heinrich Lambert Scheid died at Christmas 1917.
