Mein Kampf 50th anniversary edition
Published by: Zentralverlag der NSDAP, Franz Eher, Munchen, 1939.
This is the Jubilee edition for the 50th birthday of Adolf H.
Compared to other standard Mein Kampf editions this is truly the deluxe edition. The book has dark blue leather binding, morocco gilt, raised bands and gilt lines to spine, red title label, sword and title in gilt on front board, top edge gilt.
Condition is very good(some yellowing on the first pages). No missing pages or other damages.
705 pages / complete. Book dimensions: 23,5 cm x 17,0 cm x 4,5 cm, total weight approx 1,6 Kilo.
On the first page is a quote from Friedrich Schiller's work "Des mädchens klage" (Schiller is considered by most Germans to be Germany's most important classical playwright).
This book had a price of 32 Reichsmark 1939, quite expensive at the time. A normal worker earned around 175 Reichsmark per month, so buying this book was probably out of the question. For that reason not too many of these were manufactured.
