Jung-Koch-Quentell Wall Charts

Jung–Koch–Quentell wall charts (abbreviated as JKQ) are a series of educational wall charts for teaching biology and zoology created by Heinrich Jung (1856–1939), Gottlieb von Koch (1849-1914) and Friedrich Quentell (1847-1935). They collaborated on a series of wall charts which were published as Neuen Wandtafeln für den Unterricht in der Naturgeschichte by Frommann and Morian of Darmstadt who went out of business after World War II. The rights were then obtained by Wilhelm and Marie Hagemann and it was republished by Hagemann Company of Düsseldorf. The illustrations were often geometrically stylized and idealized in the style of Ernst Haeckel who was an influence on Von Koch. These charts are now collectors items.
