240 pages. Text in German. Illustrated throughout. Folding map at center (with long tears along the fold lines). Nice assortment of dated advertising as well, often illustrated.
Interwar period German magazine with great visual content including many aviation photos and pictorial ads.
Binding remains sound, various mostly signs of age, time and handling, including old tape repair along spine, pieces missing along fore edge of cover. Scarce in any condition.
Small age flaws or defects include possible random old creasing, edge chipping, small light old staining, etc. Overall entirely acceptable example of what is likely a scarce survival. The pictures give a very good sense of how the item survives.
Virtually all periodicals of this era are somewhat scarce today as loose complete issues. Like most random survivals of old periodical printing, any specific example (like this one) is likely among a relative handful still extant. As each decade goes back from 1950, the rate of scarcity for any specific magazine or paper item increases noticeably.
Text block remains overall clean, and displays a pleasing age patina.
Magazine remains attractive on the shelf. It displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws easy to overlook or forgive.
