Friedrich Gutsch junior

Friedrich Gutsch (born November 30, 1838 in Karlsruhe ; † September 24, 1897 there ) was a German court printer , art and court bookseller, dialect poet and initiator of the Karlsruhe advertising pillars .

Life

In 1853 Gutsch took over the court bookstore founded by his father Friedrich Gutsch senior in 1834 and founded the Karlsruher Nachrichten in 1870 , of which he was the publisher and editor for almost 25 years.

Friedrich Gutsch is also considered the initiator of the Karlsruhe advertising pillars. In early 1870 he received permission to put up billboards on public and private houses. Gutsch then founded the Karlsruhe Poster Institute , which, however, was not yet profitable in the first few years. Only with the further growth of the city did the situation improve, so that Gutsch asked in 1887 to be allowed to put up some additional billboards.

In 1891 he lived at Spitalstrasse 50, right in the center of Durlach .

As a dialect poet from Karlsruhe, Friedrich Gutsch wrote humorous and soulful works and poems. In his publishing house, among other things, the works of Fritz Römhildt were published.
