c)1934 GERMAN BOOK 300 COLOR PICTURES/CIGARETTE CARDS OF GERMAN HISTORY UNTIL 1934 Complete Album!/CIGARETTE/TOBACCO Cards/good used condition Extremely rare vintage German book entitled Alles für Deutschland (= Everything for Germany). It seems to contain over 300 color tobacco cards--complete--each measuring nearly 2 x 2 1/2 (or vice versa) about major periods and military leaders in Germany's patriotic struggle for liberation and unity. The main sections artistically depicted are the Germanic Era, the time of Karl der Große, the Interregnum, the Medieval Ages, the Reformation, the rise of Prussia under Frederick the Great, the liberation and unification wars of the 19th century, the time between the Franco-Prussian War of 1871 until the beginning of WWI in 1914, WWI and its aftermath, and November 1923 - November 1933. Published in 1934 by "Cigaretten Compagnie Yosma " in Bremen, Germany. The book is in good used condition. A few tears, most of them fixed with transparent tape. Some surface dirt. The color picture cards have been pasted in very neatly and represent important impressions for the student of German history. The images in this book are sharper than my photos. I ran out out of space before I could cover the last section (11/9/1923-11/9/1933)--I assume you know the date's significance (or ask)--7 pages with 28 pictures read more
