This is an excellent auto atlas in terms of its detail of the homeland of Adolf Hitler and the Gaue that became part of Grossdeutschland with the Anschluss in April 1938. This is the 1939 edition of the very comprehensive Auto-Atlas Ostmark at a scale of 1:200.000 or 1 centimeter = 2 kilometers.
The first page of the atlas contains photos of Gau Niederdonau, der Ahnengau des Führers (Lower Danube, the Ancestral Gau of the Führer).

Interspersed among the 53 maps is advertising for hotels, restaurants, automobiles, etc. One of the first that caught our eye was an ad for a Gasthof Schwarzer Adler owned by a member of the NSKK. On the opposite page is an ad for the Alpengasthof "Hubertushof" where they state plainly in their advertising that they don't even consider Jews [as guests]! See ad at the top of this web page. This hotel in Bad Mitterndorf is still in business today!
One of the notations on the overview map states that from 3 October 1938 everybody had to drive on the right-hand side of the road in Austria! Prior to Hitler incorporating Austria into Nazi Germany, Austrians had driven on the right in the eastern part of the country, but on the left in the western part of the country. We have no idea how they accommodated the lane switch near Salzburg!
The map section shown at the bottom is a small part of the 10 x 10 inch page that shows the area around Linz. Linz was the home of the Hermann Göring Works (Reichswerke "Hermann Göring") and Hitler lived there at one time before moving to Vienna. If you look at the area of Linz, just the southwest you will see the town of Leonding where the Hitler family grave is located. Down the Danube river to the east of Linz is Mauthausen, one of the most notorious of the SS concentration camps in Grossdeutschland.
An extremely historical auto atlas from Nazi Germany in very good used condition with a bit of glove box wear on the front and back cover.
