The Berliner Morgen-Zeitung was a daily morning newspaper in Berlin, Germany. It was first published on 1 April 1889 by Rudolf Mosse, partly inspired by Leopold Ullstein's introduction of an evening newspaper, the Berliner Abendpost, some 18 months previously. It was aimed at a more popular readership than Mosse's Berliner Tageblatt. It was little known in Berlin but widely read in the surrounding countryside and the provinces; it had a higher print run in winter than summer. In the initial year the print run was 60,000 copies; by 1900 it reached approximately 150,000 copies. From 1911, circulation declined and settled at 100,000. However, by 1930 it had the highest circulation in Germany. In 1934, it was taken over by the National Socialist Central Publishing Agency and no longer printed by Mosse. By 1937, circulation had fallen to 11,500. The newspaper was published for the last time on 15 February 1939. The following day it was amalgamated with the Berliner Morgenpost. Wikipedia
