Gebr. Arndt Foundry, est. by brothers Karl and Paul Arndt in Berlin in 1874. Karl already had experience in a foundry. Paul died in 1894, aged just 49. In 1917, Karl sold the company to Otto Thefeld (b. 1868) who had been the company's manager since 1903. In 1921, the eldest son, Heinrich Thefeld, became partner in the company. One of their house types was Courante Gotisch. Gerhard Helzel has digitizations of Courante Gotisch---one based on Bauer, and another one based on the Cottasche Bibliothek der Weltliteratur (ca. 1850).
