Milwaukee Lithographing and Engraving Company (c. 1872 - 1920) was a printing company based in its namesake city that is often considered to be the first modern printer in Milwaukee. The firm was founded by the German-born Henry Seifert, who had worked as a lithographer and printer for several years before immigrating to Milwaukee in 1852 and continuing his work in the field. He and two partners founded the Milwaukee Lithographing and Engraving Company in 1872 and in 1876 they built a three-story plant in downtown Milwaukee. Seifert stepped down as the company's president in 1899 and it appears to have ceased operations around 1920. Learn More...
