Fritz Jung


Fritz Jung Snr. (Inhaber Adolf Rothhaar)
Marktstraße 80, Landau in der Pfalz. Rhineland-Palatinate
Pfeifenhandlung, Kunstmaler / Tobacco Pipe retailer, Artist-decorator
Known dates: 1899 - 1914. Like all companies in this market they lost their customers when all the troops went to the front in WWI. However Landau was situated in the "Rhineland", which under the Versailles Treaty was a demilitarised zone. Therefore the troops did not return, not at least until 1936, at which time the custom of commissioning this type of stein had mainly been forgotten. The company continued after WWi as a cigarette retailer under the ownership of Paul F. Beck.
