EXTREMELY RARE 1933 VERSION OF THE ANTISEMITIC PHOTO BOOK
“JUDEN SEHEN DICH AN”
BY DR. JOHANN VON LEERS
THE AUTHOR WRITES IN HIS FOREWORD THAT ALL THE JEWS THAT ARE SHOWN IN HIS BOOK WOULD HAVE DESERVED TO BE EXECUTED BUT BECAUSE OF NAZI GERMANY’S HUMANITY THEY ARE STILL ALIVE!
This seldom seen 6 x 8-1/2 inch, 96-pages hardcover book is as anti-Semitic as the publications from Julius Streicher’s Stürmerverlag in Nürnberg! It was written by Dr. Johann von Leers and is divided into six chapters, each one of them deals about one typical negative Jewish characteristic (to lie, to betray, criminal financial operations, corruption, decomposition, etc.) – heavily illustrated with lots of photos of Jews who, according to the author, fit into these categories! The author, top Jew hater Dr. Johann von Leers explains this in his foreword: “for the world to see how human the German people treated these criminal parasites we have added this comment to the photos: The Jews would have faced a much harder punishment for their crimes in other countries!”
What makes this copy especially interesting and desirable is the fact that it is from the 2nd edition which, together with the 1st edition, still contains notes like ‘gerichtet’ (executed) or ‘ungehängt’ (not hanged yet) for the Jews who are depicted in the book who were still alive, such as Charlie Chaplin or Konrad Adenauer – see underlined / encircled in the photos (of course only done in Photoshop and NOTHING drawn into the book). International protests caused that unsold copies of the 1st and 2nd edition were taken off the market and from the revised 3rd edition on these comments were eliminated. To the best of our knowledge this is the only unrevised copy that is offered anywhere!
Like the Streicher books, this extremely antisemitic book was regarded as such dangerous material by the Allies that they destroyed every copy they could find in the de-Nazification that followed the collapse of the Third Reich. Original copies are extremely scarce in any condition and even more so copies of the first two editions.
