Manner im Dritten Reich - Cigaret
Card Book
Men in the Third Reich: Bremen,
Orientalische Cigaretten-Compagnie Roma, late summer 1934, original
clothbacked marbled boards with gilt lettering, 22 x 30 cm, 241
pages. Forward with color portrait of Adolf Hitler, list of contents.
This Album contains 235 biographies with 235 color portrait cards
(5 x 6 cm), a who's who of the Nazi government. The book was
printed sometime in the summer of 1934, shortly after Hitler
had SA chief Ernst Roehm and other SA leaders arrested and shot.
The book was intended to have 250 biographies because the cigaret
cards are numbered from 1 to 250 - but there are 15 missing numbers
which corresponds to the recently purged SA high command. The
book is missing two cards. The inside cover is signed by Lt Col.
Bowden W Davis who brought this book back home as a souvenir.
This is a scarce and desirable cigaret card book. Condition
of cover is very fine, inside pages are excellent.
