The shareholders were the Stuttgart-based Hermann Schober, bookseller, the owners of the Belser publishing house Karl and Alfred Wacker, and August Schuler, owner of the graphic art institute of the same name.

Hildenbrand was the only official German war photographer who published postcards in color.
