After being all but destroyed in the Chicago Fire of 1871 Marder Luse re-opened in April 1872 as the largest type foundry in the west. In 1879 the firm began selling type using American Point system of standard type sizes in an age when most foundries cast in their own sizes. A year after A. P. Luse died in 1891, the foundry became one of the twenty-three foundries that merged to become American Type Founders. After the merger Marder, served as Western general manager. (en)
