ENTIRE HARDBOUND SET OF THE FIRST 26 ISSUES OF THE NAZI PHOTO WEEKLY ‘BERLINER ILLUSTRIRTE ZEITUNG’ OR BERLIN ILLUSTRATED NEWSPAPER - JANUARY THROUGH JUNE 1935 |
 |
The Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung was Germany’s largest weekly photo newspaper published in Reichshauptstadt Berlin by Ullstein AG, and was read by just about everybody in the capital of and throughout Nazi Germany. Each 10 x 14 inch issue contained the very latest news, photographs and information gathered from around the world including features from the United States and England. The excellent weekly was sold for only 20 Reichspfennigs, the equivalent of 8 US cents.
 |
Offered on this USMBOOKS web page is every issue published from 3 January (number 1) to 27 June (number 26) of the year 1935, bound in a big 10-¾ x 14 inch, 8 pound hardcover book with 976 pages! |

City skyscrapers, and below right, US track and field athletes including Eulace Peacock. |
| Because the newspapers were bound like a hardcover book all the issues are still in excellent condition. (We also have the second half of 1935 which is bound in the same manner but each of the issues is stamped on page 1 with the words Unverkaufliches Hausexemplar suggesting that the two books for 1935 probably came from the archives of the newspaper publisher itself.) |
 |
| Naturally, Nazi Party Führer and German Chancellor Adolf Hitler is prominently featured in every issue, heard from and seen in his role as leader of the government. The historic referendum in the Saar and the ethnic German region’s subsequent reunification with the German Homeland (after 15 years) is heavily featured in the January, February and March issues, accompanied by many pictures. |
 |
 |
| Many prominent Nazis are featured, and the wedding of Reichsminister Hermann Göring and Emmy Sonnemann on 12 April in Berlin was the social event of the year. There are many pictures of the civil and church ceremonies (Adolf Hitler was best man) and the dinner that followed in the Kaiserhof Hotel. |
