Someone called Wolfgang -- dunno if that's the possibly listening one 
alluded to earlier in this thread -- runs the excellent site 
holzwerken.de
with a page for
Steiner & Söhne
https://www.holzwerken.de/museum/hersteller/steiner.phtml
and one for
Heinrich Böker
https://www.holzwerken.de/museum/hersteller/boeker.phtml

More details than on the Wikipedia page, feel free to ask questions 
should machine translations fail you.
