          The leaflet "ITALIANI" is anti-fascist and anti-german propaganda, it seems that is from resistance or from Regno del Sud (Italian Southern Kingdom).
          It was inside the magazines?

              The leaflet is very interesting and rather hard to find!
              I think that it worths the cost of the entire lot
              The magazines are still rather common over here, but nontheless nice papers, and a good resource for wartime pictures.
              Cronache della Guerra was born before Italy entered into the war. The early issues are rather neutral and objective. As Italy declared war to the Allieds, the tone of the articles changed very much! It's interesting to see this change in the various issues.
