Hitler Youth yearbooks from all years are quite rare and those published after the war began are the most difficult of all to find. This is a very nice example of the 4-1/2 x 6 inch, 300 page 1940 edition of the Jahrbuch der HJ or Yearbook of the Hitler Youth.

This is a pocket sized flexible hard cover book that contains an entire calendar for the year with about 4 days per page, interspersed with full-page photos of everything from tanks to exercising girls and famous Nazi personalities. There are pages devoted to especially poignant quotes from Hitler, historical information on prominent National Socialist landmarks like the Ewige Wache (Eternal Guard), Landsberg prison where Hitler served time and wrote Mein Kampf, etc.
HJ insignia
The organization of the Hitlerjugend is well described as are military ranks, and there are charts that explain a lot of mysterious subjects from world time and currency to road signs and signal flags.

This book belonged to a boy called Kurt Svatek, HJ number 8 447 038 of HJ-Bann 508 Wien-Nord who had a HJ Führerausweis number 1 255 261. Svatek was scrupulous about placing beautifully handwritten entries on a high percentage of the days of the calendar. They are easily read and cover everything from the movies he watched to his Führerdienst, lectures he attended, piano practice, and even the Morgenfeier or sunrise celebration on 26 May, the day Leo Slageter was shot in 1923. The notations on the days give a near perfect idea of the activities of Hitler Youth Leader over the course of a year.

There are ads for many products that would appeal to members of the Hitler Youth from Mauser guns and HJ equipment to an ad for the RZM itself. A very desirable book in excellent used condition.
