Die Geschichte der Firma P.D. Rasspe Söhne Solingen

Stöcken 17 - this address in Solingen stands for the company P. D. Rasspe Söhne. A company that built up an international reputation over many decades and was one of the best-known family businesses in Solingen. The history of the company P. D. Rasspe Söhne and its employees is not only another publication on the industrial history of the city of Solingen, but also an important article on the agricultural history of the Bergisches Land region. The production of agricultural machinery was one of the company's main areas of business. Accounts of Bergisch agricultural machinery factories are rare. This publication by Prof. Dr Jörg Becker is therefore an important basis for research into the Bergisch agricultural machinery industry and the enormous mechanisation of agriculture after the Second World War.
