If one was only going the have a single copy of the in-house magazine of the Wiener Lokomotivfabrik, this would be the one to have. It is the December 1944 issue, a special issue to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the company.
The welcome on the front cover (shown left) above a picture of the company's Humboldt locomotive is signed Heil Hitler! by the General Manager.
Inside the 8-1/4 x 11-3/4 inch, 20-page magazine are photos and descriptions of about fifty of the company's enormous products manufactured between 1873 and 1942. They also made steamrollers and some of them are shown. We especially like the picture at the top showing the 1 Do 1-Elektrolokomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn with what most collectors refer to as a "boxcar eagle and swastika" on the side.
Excellent railroad minutia in nice used condition.
