Book - EHREN CHRONIK

[hagwalther]

Fellow Members,



I came across this book the other day.










Vendor states that it is a rare book glorifying the German victory in WWII and presented to German veterans for 'their active duty to the Fatherland'.

As such, few (one would have thought none) were ever issued.

Size is 240 x 305 mm

96 pages

Leather bound - silver embossed

Fantasy item perhaps?

Sorry, but photos are the best available.

Thanking in advance.



Regards ...

Hi,

No this isn't a fantasy piece.
Such books are originals, and not so hard to get.
First the title page for the man's name etc.
Then the german high command, and some german history.
Then pages for his own photos.
And sometimes place for award documents etc.
Even a fine book when it isn't used, much better than a normal empty album.

you can find them on ebay - sometimes expensive on ebay.com.
For a better price try ebay.de or militariaweb.

Thanks Eric,

Looks like they are a lot cheaper in Europe than in New Zealand too.
