    My first East German book

    Is $40 for the hardcover book entitled Uniformen der Nationalen Volksarmee der DDR 1956-1986. a good deal? I'm just wondering because i bought one and was wondering if i got a good deal. It seemed like it had a lot of good pics and i'm farily new to dress uniforms so i thought i should get it.

    These hardback books are getting harder and harder to find. I think you did fine. The newer edition has a bit more information in it to include KVP and Grenztruppen. But the earlier edition like you got has far better quality color plates.

        very good buy and an excellent book .... I personally prefer the newer edition because it is more complete and provides an overview from beginning to end, but as Michael already said, this one has better quality plates ... Cheers, Torsten.

          That is only very slightly more than I paid for mine about 2 years ago and I felt like I did very well... since then they seem to have become harder to find, and much more expensive when you do. So I'd call it a score!

            I'm glad i did OK. I really have a preference for open collar color piped tunics so i think that even though i only have info up till 86, i should still have some good info on the older stuff. Thanks for the opinions, Luke.

              CONGRATS in your find and hope you have the same luck in getting all your other East German reference books you will need...
