This is a very nice, complete example of the hardcover Nazi cigarette collector card album Männer im Dritten Reich (Men of the Third Reich) with the title embossed in gold letters on the front cover. The 8-½ x 12 inch, 242 page hardcover book was published by Orientalische Cigaretten-Compagnie Rosma of Bremen in the summer of 1934. The 250 beautifully made gold-bordered color pictures are all carefully glued in place. NONE are damaged or missing.
