    Propaganda Book from the "West"

    Hello fellow Collectors,

    I want to show you a very interesting book I have found lately.

    Written in 1962 from a west german publisher..

    "SED Funktionäre in Offiziersuniform"

    shows some very nice Photos and the History of all or most NVA Generals and high Officers from the beginnig of the NVA!


    So not only the "East" made Propaganda Books of the "West"

    It's an interesting book and has been mentioned in this forum before. I have a photocopy of it somewhere that I made from a copy that was in the library of the US Mission Berlin.

        Hi Andreas, there were quite a few anti-DDR books published in the BRD and particularly in the early 60s...here is another example ... Cheers, Torsten.

              Hi Ralph, not sure but I thought I had shown that book on the forum before .... I did show Andreas' book in a thread somewhere ... anyhow here are some more pics of the red book that I showed. It is not the same as the one from Andreas, but it shows a photographic comparison of why the DDR is basicaly just like the Third Reich ... rediculous propaganda really, as the same comparative photographs could be found to 'proof' that any country in the world is just like the Third Reich .... Cheers, Torsten.

                          Thanks Torsten for the additional pictures. Not taking away that this is a propaganda photograph book, but having this type of book today would be of interest just from the stand point of going through the pictures from the early years.

                            I wholeheartedly agree with Ralph,

                            From a propaganda aspect the book is rubbish. But the East German photos appear quite interesting. So many are repetitive and the same pictures often appear in several different publications. These photos however all appear to be unique to this particular book.
