Any Christmas Releases from Bender ??

[Mark Costa]

Has anyone heard whether or not there will be any "Christmas" releases from Bender Publsihing this season? If not, that would be two years in a row without any releases around this time for the Christmas Tree ! I know there were books tentatively scheduled on "Reichsbahn Eagles", Hoffmann KC Cards and of course Mark Yeager's volume 6.

The booklet about Reichsbahn-eagles is delayed for quite some time. It won't be out before the end of 2013 earliest.
I am still sorting out the photographs for the chapters 5, 6 and 7 and making the captions. The first four chapters are nearly done and do include about 200 or so photographs/images!

I spoke with Roger the other day to see if there was anything coming out soon and unfortunately there will be no new releases before the end of this year. The next shipment coming from the printer will contain Mark Yerger's new book German Cross in Gold book. Then there will be a HUGE book on US Airborne uniforms, equipment, and insignia. Which will contain some really rare items.

Remy and Wilhelm :

thank you for the information. I look forward to both books.

latest news in march 2012

The latest news from the March 2012 newsletter. Guess title A & B comming in early 2013 then?:


"5. Additional titles in the queue:

So the question is, "what have we been doing this last year when we
didn't release any new titles?"

The answer quite simply is that we have been working on a block of
new books that we believe you will greatly appreciate. Some have been
in the works for nearly 20 years, others are much newer, but all
valuable additions to any collector's library - here is a partial
list of new books in the queue:

A: "Heroes In Our Midst: Volume 1" by Ltc. (Ret) John Angolia,
assisted by Jake Powers and a whole host of great resources on the
subject, is coming along well and will hopefully be available in 6
months. This title is dedicated to the WWII U.S. Airborne and it's
collectibles. It will cover multiple variations of unit patches,
training, many rare unpublished photos of uniforms, equipment, and
the list goes on...

B: "German Cross in Gold: Volume 6" by Mark A Yerger is in process
and continues what we know to be a desirable series of books on
Holders of the SS and Police.

C: "Railway Eagles" by Wilhelm PBR Saris - The author will cover all
Reichsbahn eagles and their uses, manufacturers' marks, as well as
how to detect fakes. This book will answer the questions we as
collectors have had for years.

D: "Hoffmann, The R-Series" (Ritterkreuz) - Heinrich Hoffman produced
numerous photo postcards series during the Third Reich period. One of
the most popular for collectors is the "R" series which depicts over
300 of Germany's wartime heroes. Research has uncovered numerous
variations which we will be showing as well."

"The Boss" (Roger Bender) told me my German Cross volume 6 will hit his door last week of December

The US Airborne book about February

[Klaus Richter]

Hurray!!!! I can't wait. Good thing Roger is releasing your book first without waiting for the other.

[Mark C. Yerger]

Hurray!!!! I can't wait. Good thing Roger is releasing your book first without waiting for the other.

Thanks for the comment

Hope to ship him vol. 8 at the same time (I'm considerably ahead)

7 and 8 are in a larger page count size (400+) with 9 going to probably be the largest volume of the series.

Happy holidays

Mark
