Munich calendar Otto Hupp 13 color woodcuts Heraldry coat of arms, 1919 Munich Calendar, Illustrated by Otto Hьpp by German heraldic artist Otto Hupp (1859-1949) illustrating the noble and civic heraldry of Germany. Written & Colour Illustrated by Otto Hьpp with Coats of arms of German States Published by Mьnchen/Regensburg (Verlag G. J. Manz) In German text A Munich calendar with 13 fabulous lithographic crests on thick paper 36 pages 12.5" x 6.5" Hermann Joseph Otto Hubert August Constantin Hupp (May 21, 1859 – January 31, 1949) was a German graphical artist. His main working area was heraldry, yet he also worked as a typeface designer, creating commercial symbols and metal works. Hupp was born in Dьsseldorf, the fourth of five sons of the engraver Carl Heinrich Hupp. His father made him learn engraving as his profession, and, shortly after finishing his education, he moved to Munich in 1878. Since 1891 till his death Hupp lived in the suburb OberschleiЯheim. From the painter Rudolf Seitz he learned many styles of painting, and when he met the architect Gabriel von Seidl he received several contracts to paint wall and ceiling frescos. Hupp's main field of work was heraldry, painting more than 6,000 coats of arms and writing books on heraldry. His Wappen und Siegel der deutschen Stдdte, Flecken und Dцrfer (Coats of Arms and Seals of German Cities, Places and Villages[1]) book series was started in 1895, but of the originally ten planned volumes only five were finished. 3,300 of his paintings of coats of arms were published as a collecting set from the coffee company Kaffee HAG from 1913–18 and 1926–38. This publication helped to make heraldry better known to the general public. Another important heraldic publication by Hupp were the Mьnchener Kalender (Munich calendar), of which 51 issues were published from 1885–1936 (the issue of 1933 was omitted).[1] Along with painting existing coats of arms, he also created many drafts for municipalities which were applying for new arms. Possibly his most important coat of arms was the 1923 version for the state of Bavaria, which, however, was replaced with a new version after World War II. The first typographic works of Hupp were made in 1883. His first typeface, Neudeutsch, was published in 1899 by Genzsch & Heyse. He created several further typeface later, such as Hupp-Gotisch, Hupp-Fraktur, and Hupp-Antiqua. However, as his typefaces were not designed for standard uses, they did not spread much, and are nowadays mostly forgotten. None of them was ever converted to be used in phototypesetting. Other significant works of Hupp include metal works for Speyer Cathedral in 1904 (which also gained him the title professor in 1906), the cover of an astronomical clock donated to the city of Munich, and the company logo of the Spaten brewery.
