Karl Hugo Schmölz - Köln, 2012: title page (Karl Hugo Schmölz) page 167 (born Oct. 6, 1917 in Weissenhorn; father: architectural photographer Hugo Schmölz (1879-1938), who opened a portrait studio in Cologne; upon the death of his father in 1938, Schmölz continued the firm; after his marriage to the fashion photographer Walde Huth, Schmölz opened a studio Schmölz + Huch for advertising photography (esp. for furniture) in Cologne in 1958 and was able to document life styles from the 1950s to 1970s; because the demand for high-quality advertising photography declined in the 1970s, Schmölz's own fortunes declined, and his wife closed the business upon Schmölz's death in 1986)
