Brief description: Ulrich Delius and Water Baumeister (1903 - 1971), Photographers Scope: 76 units Contents: Photos: History of photography; Photo Sport company; family portraits; written material: family tree Duration: 1925-1933; 2006 Instructions for use: Individual units cannot be used for conservation reasons. Preface: The estate of Walter Baumeister and Ulrich Delius was donated to the Stuttgart City Archives in November 2006 by Mrs. Inge Eberle-Delius, the daughter of the photographer Ulrich Delius. It contains stereo glass slides with night shots of the Stuttgart Light Festival in 1928, photo albums with family portraits, views of Stuttgart and other places in Baden-Württemberg, and excursions with participants in photo courses, as well as a copy of a family tree of the Baumeister family. Ulrich Delius ran the photo studio Photo-Sport at Büchsenstraße 8 in Stuttgart together with Walter Baumeister (1903 - 1971), a great cousin of the painter Willi Baumeister. In this context, they offered courses for amateur photographers, with whom they undertook excursions to the region around Tübingen and the eastern northern Black Forest. Both had a special interest in monastery architecture. In July 1928 Ulrich Delius married Irma Baumeister, the sister of the painter Walter Baumeister. At this time only his mother-in-law Emma Baumeister, née Vock (5.8.1878 - ca. 1934), was still alive, his father-in-law Erich Baumeister (18.10.1877 - 20.11.1924) had died of blood poisoning after a visit to the barber. Ulrich Delius and Irma Baumeister had six daughters together, the two older ones, Eleonore and Inge, can be seen in some of the children's portraits. Walter Baumeister was married for about ten years to Hede Baumeister, née Oberndorfer (born 1909), with whom he had his son Dieter. The marriage was divorced. The Baumeister and Delius married couple lived together with Emma Baumeister in Sonnenbergstraße 5 b. The late Erich Baumeister had been a partner in a metal goods factory in Büchsenstraße 8, where Ulrich Delius set up the Photo-Sport studio in 1928. Walter Baumeister, who had continued his father's business until then, must have joined the company around 1929, because from 1930 he is named in the address book as managing director of the Photo-Sport company. In October 1929 a branch was opened in Hirschstraße and Breite Straße 2. The Delius family moved to Ludwigsburg around 1932, where Ulrich Delius set up his own photo studio. Walter Baumeister continued the Photo-Sport company until the end of World War II, or at least until the destruction of Stuttgart's city centre in 1944. His extensive camera collection, which he had hidden at a secret location, was confiscated by the Allies after the end of the war because the company's authorized signatory had told them where he was hiding. This also meant the end of the Photo-Sport company. The Baumeister-Delius estate contains photos on the history of photography in Stuttgart. Thus the photos of the excursions of the photo course participants of the company Photo Sport can be regarded as proof for the spreading of the medium photography in large population strata. For a long time photography as a hobby had been unaffordable for many because of the high costs, but after the invention of the 35 mm camera it quickly became popular. Here and there you can see technical tricks like attaching a camera to a hot air balloon for "aerial photos" on photos of excursions of the company Photo-Sport with course participants. The few photographs from the late 1920s that document events such as the 1928 Colonial Conference, a visit to the Sarasani Circus, a zeppelin over Stuttgart, the Hindenburg visit to Stuttgart and military parades are worthy of special mention. The family photos were taken during excursions or on the occasion of birthdays, weddings and Christmas parties. The use of the estate is free of charge. The stereo glass slides with their analog reproductions are locked for use in the reading room. Instead, photo prints are available for viewing in the reading room. Additional digital copies of the glass slides were made. The collection covers the years 1925 to 1933 and 2006 and contains 40 glass slides with reproductions, seven photo albums and one document.
