He settled as a type founder in Amsterdam in 1841 and went into partnership with a certain Menne, probably someone with the first name of Hendrik. This is a page from their first type specimen. De Passe and Menne were, with their modern types, a formidable competitor for Joh. Enschedé en Zonen, who took over the firm in 1847 after the death of De Passe in 1844. origineel: source: Proeve van drukletteren, uit de lettergieterij van De Passe en Menne: Amsterdam: [De Passe en Menne], 1843, p. 64 en t.o.p. 64 ©description: Den Haag Koninklijke Bibliotheek ©reproduction: Amsterdam Bibliotheek KVB Universiteitsbibliotheek UVA |
