Illustrierte Geschichte des Weltkrieges
Vol. 1-9
(Illustrated history of the world war)
A large format German WW1 9 volume book set about
the events and progress of WWI from 1914-1919
Profusely illustrated history of the first World War from the German viewpoint.
The value of these books lies in the illustrations, photos and sketches !!
This is the rare COMPLETE series of 9 volumes, German Text.
You maybe can find some of the first volumes of this book set. You hardly see volumes 6-9.
Again, this is now the complete book set vol 1-9 !!!!
4,150 pages, with approx. 5700 illustrations, 200+ multi color art plates, 300+ maps and schemes
Approx/Measurements of each Book: 12-3/4" x 10";
Total weight about 42 lbs.!
I would rate them as good exterior and very good interior for this ~100 year old books.
Luckily these volumes are all sewed, which means no rusty staples for you :-)
Boards rubbed and stained, spines partly slanted.
I've roughly flipped through the books, there is no indication of missing pages.
But I can not check each single page of the total of more than 4000 pages,
as this would require several hours of work.
A very remarkable book set of WW1 !!!!!
