They delight and challenge their customers and peers. They love their work, pour their best selves into it, and turn each day into a kind of art.

In 1923, with its currency effectively worthless (the exchange rate in December of that year was one dollar to 4,200,000,000,000 marks), the German republic was all but reduced to a barter economy.
