Pieter de Looze (23 September 1811–14 April 1881) was a book and newspaper printer, publisher, and seller in Zierikzee, best known as founder of the Zierikzeesche Nieuwsbode.[1][2]
Career and aftermath
[edit]The publishing and book selling firm was started in the first half of the 19th century by Pieter de Looze at his residential address, Melkmarkt 2 (corner Schuithaven).[2] In 1844 Looze founded the Zierikzeesche Nieuwsbode that he published and printed.[3][4][2] Pieter de Looze was succeeded by his son Adriaan Johannes (also spelled as Johannis) de Looze.[2][1]
In 1869 the print operation, including the Zierikzeesche Nieuwsbode, was acquired by Ochtman, later known as Lakenman en Ochtman, recently shortened to LNO.[5] In 1998 the Zierikzeesche Nieuwsbode was acquired by and merged into the Provinciale Zeeuwse Courant.[6]
The property on Melkmart 2 in Zierikzee is still mixed use: commercial and residential.
