From a Who's Who in Germany 1896, published in 1897 Otto Bock is listed a supplier to the court for antlers, taxidermy and apparently dabbled as a sculptor? So it is a little earlier that 1900 but his adverts up to 1894 do not have the appointment but have him at the same Kronenstraße 7.
Otto Bock, Hoflief.(Hoflieferant) Sr.(Seiner) Maj.(Majestät) des Kaisers, Berlin W., Kronenstr. 7. Fernspn-Amt I, 1999. Jagdausrüstung, Hirschhornwarenfabrik, Tierausstopferei, Bildhauerei.
