Greve, Wilhelm (? - 1883)

Wilhelm Greve (? - 1883) was a German lithographer and publisher of maps and books, perhaps the father of a lithographer of the same name who was born in 1878 and died in 1932. Not much information is available about either man. A 'Geographisches Institut Wilhelm Greve' was established in Berlin in the early 1870s. The abbreviation 'Königl.' that often followed their name suggests that they published for the royal family (Hohenzollern). They continued to publish maps until the late 1920s.
