Hunting and fishing and allied sports such as falconry have long been favorite pastimes of landowners and the wealthy in Germany and it continued to be popular among an elite group during the Third Reich of Adolf Hitler. Among the best magazines available to sportsmen was the 9 x 12 inch, heavily illustrated twice-monthly Deutsches Waidwerk (The Forest Work) published by Richter & Springer of Wien, Germany.
Each issue covered all that was new in the hunting world and the Deutsche Jägerschaft (DJ or German Hunting Association). The magazine also provided advertising that led the reader to sources for things like swords and daggers, shotguns, rifles, pistols, gun powder, mountain shoes, binoculars, uniforms, travel, cigars, jewelry, automobiles, places to stay, taxidermists, and other hunting equipment.
The five Deutsches Waidwerk issues in this lot are those of 23 December 1938, 24 February 1939, 12 May 1939, 2 January 1942 and 8 January 1943 (the issue of 2 January 1942 has no cover but is otherwise complete).
Issues of the magazine contain around 20 pages. Advertisers include Walther, Krieghoff, Meissen, Mercedes-Benz, Hensoldt, Hanomag, Mauser, Spindler & Hoyer, Jägermeister, Krupp, Steyr, Gustloff Werke, Boenecke, Edward Kettner, Sauer & Sohn, Leitz, Canadian Pacific, Busch, Rosenthal, Wanderer, Clemens & Jung, etc.
These 65+ year old issues of Deutsches Waidwerk are complete (except as mentioned above) and in good readable condition.
