RARE ORIGINAL 1939 ‘BEAMTENAUSGABE’ / CIVIL SERVANT’S EDITION “MEIN KAMPF”

THIS LIMITED EDITION WAS PUBLISHED ONLY IN 1939 AND ONLY IN AUSTRIA IN RECOGNITION OF THE

FÜHRER’S 50th BIRTHDAY AND GIVEN TO DESERVING CIVIL SERVANTS IN HITLER-GERMANY

Adolf Hitler’s autobiography and political manifest. The copy that is offered for sale was published in 1939 by Central Publishing House of the NSDAP, Franz Eher, Nachf. in Munich, Germany. In recognition of Hitler’s 50th birthday a limited edition, called “Jubiläumsausgabe” (Jubilee Edition) was published. It was a “DeLuxe” version of the regular blue Volksausgabe (People’s Edition), but also larger in size (235 x 165mm). What many don’t know is that also a red Jubilee edition was published in 1939 in Austria, Hitler’s homeland. The book that is offered here, however, is a very nice copy of a third ‘Jubilee‘ edition that also was printed on occasion of Hitler’s 50th birthday: the so called “Beamtenausgabe” or Civil Servants Edition. Slightly smaller in size but in the same design as the regular Jubilee edition, this book was given to deserving civil servants in the Ostmark and Sudetenland only. This copy was given to someone in the Salzburg area and has a nice dedication with NSDAP stamp Salzburg in the front. Comes with its original dust jacket which shows minor signs of use, and which protected the book very well over all these years.
