The Leipzig Geographical Institute of Wagner & Debes was the foremost German cartographic printer and publisher of cartographic work in the 19th- and early 20th century. Established in 1835 as a lithographic press by Eduard Wagner, it enjoyed a continuous stream of orders from the famous cartography publisher Karl Baedeker. In 1872 the son, Heinrich Wagner, took over, moved the presses to Leipzig, and established his own publishing firm in collaboration with Ernst Debes. -- .
