Founded as a family business

The publisher's logo used to consist of the founder's initials and the letter M, which stood for the company's location, Munich, Germany: J.F.S.M.

His son Franz Schmidt later ran a publishing house in Nuremberg, Franconia/Bavaria, Germany, under the logo F.S.N. (Franz Schmidt Nuremberg). The company first moved to Munich with F.S.M. (Franz Schmidt Munich) and then used the graphic logo with the twin spires of the Marienkirche (also called Frauenkirche), the Munich Cathedral.
