Germany, Third Reich. A 1934 Edition of Männer im Dritten Reich
(Zigarettenalbum Männer im Dritten Reich). A very well-preserved and complete 1934 edition of Männer im Dritten Reich (Men in the Third Reich). Constructed of a laminated card stock binding, it features 241 paginated interior pages pasted with full-colour cigarette cards depicting key figures of the Third Reich, including many NSDAP and Sturmabteilung (SA) officials. Each card is supplemented with a brief yet detailed biography in black Fraktur script. Notably, two blank pages near the end of the book are pasted with an additional eight card variations, accompanied by handwritten notes from the owner connecting them to the alternate versions earlier in the book. The album was issued by the Breme-based Orientalischen Cigaretten-Companie “Rosma”. It measures 215 mm (w) x 305 mm (h). Age-appropriate material fatigue is evident, and the binding lamination has been reinforced with tape. The album is otherwise complete and intact, and is in an overall near extremely fine condition.
