NAZI SS PHOTO BOOK “THE GERMANIC COMMUNITY”

A FINE EXAMPLE OF THE BIG
SS PHOTO / BELIEF BOOK
GERMANISCHE
GEMEINSCHAFT

(THE GERMANIC COMMUNITY)
This is a very nice example of the big 9-3/4 x 12-5/8 inch, 64 page coffee table book ,,Germanische Gemeinschaft’’ (The Germanic Community) by Dr. Franz Riedweg and Dr. Walter Faltz as published by the SS Publishing House Nibelungen Verlag in Berlin in 1941. This was one of the last very high quality publications of Nibelungen Verlag and was very carefully put together from unusually effective SS photos and printed on fine coated paper.
Nazi Martyrs
The old German antique dealer from whom we bought this book described it in a very sincere manner as, “a book of beautiful people!” The picture on the front cover of ,,Germanische Gemeinschaft’’ is of a Flemish SS volunteer and sets the tone for the rest of the book. Interspersed with photos of very serious looking SS men, their children and their ancestors are the words of the Führer, Adolf Hitler, and other quotable Germans.
SS helmet
Among those besides Hitler to be quoted in the book are Friedrich the Great, Herybert Menzel, Irmgard Grosch, Walter Flex, Thilo Scheller, Heinrich Lerch and Friedrich Nitzsche.

Aside from the SS photos there are photos by Erna Lendvai-Dircksen, F.F. Bauer, Dr. Paul Wolff and Hans Huppmann.
