Fonderie Typographique de Battenberg

Type foundry in Paris, est. 1843. Maison Battenberg was located in the fashionable rue du Dragon (number 20) in Paris. They also had an office at 15, Rue Madame, in Paris. Battenberg's gorgeous engravings include vignettes du moyen age, vignettes raisins, vignettes grimpantes, vignettes rubans, vignettes treillage, tetes de chapitre, culs de lampe, fleurons, titling ornaments and initials.

The foundry of Gustave Mayeur, which existed from 1882 until 1919, evolved from Battenberg, starting first via a joint venture called Veuve Battenberg et Mayeur (est. 1872), and from 1880 onwards, just Gustave Mayeur.
