Great Historical German (style) Bow Makers

Historically, there were many great French bowmakers whose names are all very familiar: Bazin, Fetique, Sartory, Ouchard, Husson, et al. However they all seem to have made only Frech-style bass bows.

Besides Pretzchner, who were the great makers of German-style bows?

Albert Nürnberger and Kurt Dölling are about in the same league as H.R. Pfreztschner

Kurt, Berndt, Michael, Heinz and Otto Dölling are indeed some of the most notable names. The Pöllmanns of bow making.
