The correct name probably is "Frau Dr. Krüger", not "Frau Dr. G. Krüger". The cultivar was introduced under "Frau Dr. Krüger" by H. Kiese. [Rosen-Zeitung 1919, p. 73]
Mme. Caroline Testout x Baronne Henriette de Loew; growth vigorous; foliage large and desease resistant; flowers lasting, full, creme-salmon, solitary on long stems;
usable for all purposes; good as cut-flower [Rosenzeitung 1919, p. 73]
Similar to Mme. Jules Gravereaux [Rosen-Zeitung 1919, p. 84]
Hybrid Tea, salmony on yellow [Rosen-Zeitung 1920, p.7]

The statement on the similarity to 'Mme Jules Gravereaux' is intriguing. I wonder whether one of the versions of MJG in commerce is actually 'Frau Dr. Krüger'?
Was there a reference lso to the exhibition of 1911 at Saverne?

Yes, there is, it reads:
"Our honored member and breeder Dr. Krüger had exhibited a lot of novelties as standards, of which the most prominent were Frau Dr. Krüger, Dernburg and Adeline Wolfhügel." [Rosen-Zeitung 1911, p.71]
