Chr. F. Winter Sohn did not limit its operations to photographic equipment alone; it also supplied projection systems for presentations and public displays, along with a wide range of optical instruments and microscopes. In addition, the company offered photographic services such as copying, film and glass plate developing, and enlarging. This broad scope of activity demonstrates that the firm catered not only to amateur photographers, but also to professional, scientific, and institutional clients.
This registered letter, dated 1919, was sent to the Allgemeiner Deutscher Automobil-Klub (ADAC) in Munich. Its destination highlights Chr. F. Winter Sohn’s role as a provider of technical equipment and visual production solutions for major institutions. Situated in the immediate post-World War I period, the envelope stands as a valuable historical document illustrating early connections between photographic technology and technical organizations.
