A Fibel in German is the name attached to a very basic handbook or primer which gives the reader a brief but thorough overview of a specific subject. During the Third Reich the government produced handbooks or Fibel on subjects ranging from how to drive a tank to how to stop a tank with a Panzerfaust to raising all sorts of small farm animals.

This 5-3/4 x 8-1/4 inch, 32-page Third Reich Fibel was published by the Reichsverband deutscher Kleintierzüchter eV or the State Society of German Small Animal Breeders Registered Society, in cooperation with the Reichsfachgruppe Kaninchenzüchter eV. (State Group Rabbit Breeders).

The booklet is called Die lustige Kaninchenfibel (The Amusing Rabbit Primer) and was published in 1941 or 1942 and in a funny way explains all about the various kinds of domestic rabbits, how they are raised, the circumstances under which they live, how to feed them and care for them and how to get the most consistent meat and fur production from them.

This original Third Reich example of Die lustige Kaninchenfibel is in very good used condition. It is complete and has no unpleasant odor.
