Since this is the Third Reich edition of Der Volks-Brockhaus A-Z, photos include Nazi medals and Abzeichen, and the colorful flag section includes the Nazi swastika flag, the Reichskriegsflagge and the Standarte des Führers. Aside from the flags, there are color maps and color plates of the human body, poisonous plants, the color spectrum, German folklore dress, butterflies, birds, mushrooms, etc.

In a 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 inch hardcover format, the book has tens of thousands of entries, thousands of pictures and excellent line drawings as well as a good number of full-color and black and white full-page plates and maps.

If you are a serious Nazi militaria collector or Third Reich history student, this illustrated dictionary is a worthy addition to your library.

This is the big 800+ page Volks-Brockhaus encyclopedic dictionary of German things and German speech as published by the firm of F. A. Brockhaus in Leipzig. Most importantly, this is the rare 1935 Third Reich edition which covers Nazi things and Nazi speech better than any other German dictionary up to that time.

The cover is not faded, and the contents is in very good used condition. The first two pages of the book are missing - the first title page and the title page (pages I, II, III and IV) so the book starts with the Foreword dated Autumn 1935 on page V. Pages 1 though 794 are complete, clean and in very nice condition. No offensive odor.

If you can live without the title pages (probably removed because of a name or Nazi library stamp), this 1935 Volks-Brockhaus encyclopedic dictionary is a bargain at only $125.

Of course, regular subjects include astrology, art, chemistry, mining, flowers and herbs, race and the human body, tools, radio, mushrooms, insects, foreign cultures, gas generators and steam engines, world maps, etc., etc.
