She had him run by managing directors: initially Julius Fricke was appointed managing director of the publishing house, until in 1860 Gustav Emil Barthel was appointed responsible in his place. Fricke founded the J. Fricke Verlag (also: Verlag von Julius Fricke ), which existed until 1887 and which partly published works by Mühlmann authors.
