Ankerbrot and Schenker

The company was originally formed by Heinrich Mendl and Fritz Mendl, brothers of Schenker's pupil and patron Sofie Deutsch. Schenker frequently found himself in the company of Fritz Mendl (who was first mentioned in Schenker's diary in December 1906 (OJ 1/5, p. 31)), either at Mrs. Deutsch's home or in the home of Mendl and his wife.
