Note: Posner Jewish Encyclopedia (original): Karl Louis (or Ludwig) von Posner, Hungarian paper manufacturer; lithographic artist and printer was born 1822 and died in Budapest in 1887. He founded the largest printing, lithographic, and bookbinding establishment in Hungary in 1852 and is listed with his nephews from Czettel & Deutsch, as a paper manufacturer. Karl was sent by his government as a commissioner to the expositions of London (1871), Vienna (1878), Paris (1880s) and Triest (1882) and in 1884 was empowered by the minister of education (Trefort) to oversee the survey and reproduction of maps of Hungary. Hungary was so greatly indebted to him for his work in connection with the graphic arts and the paper industry, Emperor Francis Joseph I ennobled him in 1873 (knighted) and then in 1885, bestowed upon him the title of Royal Councillor. After his death, the title and his printing business passed to his son, Alfred

The Posner's and the Czettels helped form Hungary and paid a significant roll in the development of Budapest for the country's Milernium celebration of 1896. The were instrumental in re-designing the expanding city of Andrasy utca and Hero's Square.
