There is now a Wikipedia Article on the “Kunstverlag J.C. Blumenberg” , the publisher where many prints of Fritz Neumann and his wife published their works, in the German Wikipedia. It also includes images of the blind stamp to enable easier recognition (e.g. via Google Lens).

Thanks to all contributors for their help!

This is the probably older version of the blind stamp that’s used on some prints by Fritz Neumann.

It imitates the Holsten Gate in Lübeck (second image), another indication of a North German origin. So far, inquiries from the Lübeck City Archives about former art publishers in the city have not yet been answered.

For examples of the blind stamp in use, see:

• Fox Terrier by Fritz Neumann (First image, lower right corner)
• Two Fox Terriers by Fritz Neumann (Last image)
