NAZI PHOTO BOOK OF MUNICH 1939

THE BEST NAZI PHOTO BOOK ABOUT
MÜNCHEN (MUNICH), THE CAPITAL
OF THE NAZI MOVEMENT

This is a used ITALIAN example of the rare 8-1/4 x 11-1/2 inch, 134 page, very heavily illustrated hardcover book München Vom Wesen einer deutschen Stadt (MONACO - Carattere di una città tedesca or Munich - Soul of a German City), the brainchild of Munich Mayor and Reichsleiter Karl Fiehler as published by Verlags und Vertriebs GmbH in München, Germany in 1939.

A section from the end papers of this book is shown at the top of this page. The Wappen or shield coat of arms of Munich was changed during the Third Reich to include a Nazi eagle and swastika.

Written and illustrated by a hand-picked group of eleven Nazis, this book begins with a full-page tipped-in art print of the Professor Richard Klein bust of German Führer, Adolf Hitler. It recaps the history of the city and its importance to the NSDAP and the Third Reich, in the Italian language.

Excellent full-page photos provide a virtual tour not only of the major National Socialist sites like the House of German Art, Feldherrnhalle and Führerbau in München, but of other general and architectural sites in and around München as well.

Very well done pen & ink illustrations compliment the big photographs (photo captions are in German, English, French and Italian) and a very well-written text.

This book is in used condition and a must for serious students of Hitler and the Nazis or those interested in the history of Bavaria and München, die Hauptstadt der Bewegung. It was once wet and several pages were stuck together damaging some of the photos. Fortunately, the important photos of Hitler, Nazi buildings, SS men at the Ehrentempel, etc. are not damaged. The pages that were stuck together have pictures of scenery, swans, etc. Because of the damage we offer this book for $110.00 less than normal.
