"GERMANY AWAKENED" RARE EARLY NAZI COLOR BOOK
VERY EARLY EDITIONS OF THE RARE THIRD REICH PHOTO
BOOK DEUTSCHLAND ERWACHT (GERMANY AWAKENED)
COMPLETE AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION
The books were the Nazi Party’s tribute to itself and consist of a very substantial well-written German text, six full-page illustrations in color and black & white, over 60 color photos pasted in (most 1/2-page size), over 160 black & white photos pasted in, and one huge fold-out photo taken at a Nazi Party rally in Nürnberg that measures 12 inches tall by over 4 FEET long!
Drawings in the margins of the book were done by SS-Obersturmführer Felix Albrecht.
The books cover every conceivable aspect of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party including major personalities, early meetings, the Beer Hall “Putsch”, electioneering, the Braunes Haus, fighting the Communists, the SA and SS, the Hitler Youth (HJ), BdM, Party Rallies, winning power in Germany, Hitler at the Berghof, etc.
The “SA Brown” colored cloth cover is embossed with gold blocking of the title and the profile of a Nazi against an embossed swastika in an oak leaf wreath.
Photos include Hitler, Ernst Röhm, Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess, Reichsminister Hermann Göring, Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler, Julius Schreck, Dr. Joseph Goebbels, Horst Wessel, Jakob Grimminger and the Blood Flag (Blutfahne), the Italian Avantguardia, Ritter von Epp, all the Putsch martyrs, Stosstruppe Hitler, ....
Shown left, we offer a very nice, very early edition of the first printing of Deutschland Erwacht which has had the full-page Ernst Röhm portrait and caption replaced with one of Viktor Lutze (Stabschef der SA)! Other unaltered pictures of Röhm remain, while at least one has had a part of his face scratched away.
In almost all examples of this early edition of the book, the full-page Röhm portrait has been defaced or removed. An early edition of this book in fine condition.

These huge 10 x 12-1/2 inch, 150+ page very heavily illustrated hard cover books are excellent examples of Deutschland Erwacht (Germany Awakened) published for the NSDAP in Germany by Cigaretten Bildendienst of Altona-Bahrenfeld in 1933.

Our second example of this book (shown left) is from the First Edition, second hundred thousand (101-200 thousand) printed, and is a slightly different book in terms of page layout and with a number of photos and captions removed and replaced including the full-page portrait of Ernst Röhm.
