Jacob Ferdinand Schreiber, born 1809, formed the publisher of books for children in 1831, the business being run by his son Ferdinand Schreiber after J F Schreiber died in 1868. J F Schreiber produced toy theatres as well as books and card construction models including castles, palaces, lighthouses, ships, aircraft, nativity scenes and the railway station (bahnhof) illustrated below, which is understood to be based based on that at Darmstadt in Germany.
Hubert Siegmund published reproductions of cardboard cut out buildings originally published in Germany by J F Schreiber, a hundred years earlier.
