The Luger booklet is a 'commercial available' manual that could be purshased and not really scarce. The Sauer manual is scarcer and came in 3
variations; to positively i.d it i should see the first page but i think it's a 2nd variation measuring 140 x 105 cm and counting 30 pages. This Sauer manual is not the first and not the last version of the 38H pistol but it's difficult to date. 1942-1943?
I collect manuals so if you should ever part with them you can always pm me

Hi,
Same comments as Kris.
Back to the value question, Denckler's manual about the P08 can ba bought between 60 to 100 € (depending on the condition).
The Sauer one is a little bit scarcer...
Same comment as Kris if you are looking for somebody else for hosting the Sauer's one
Regards

The Sauer manual is about 4 1/8" x 5 1/2" , roughly 30 pages with a fold out at the end .

Is that the first page? If yes one is missing. ?

Oops , I wasn't sure If you meant the title page or page #1 . Here is the very 1st page and also page #1 .

Sorry; i should have been more clear.
Yes, a 2nd variation manual.
