Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:334519 |
The world had never seen an army like the German army of WW2; as Winston Churchill once said, "If it is to live in peace it must never see another". At its high point, Germany's conquests extended from the French Channel ports in the West to Stalingrad in the East. German swords of WW2, as well as those carried in WW1 and the interwar period, have been of great interest to collectors for decades, leading John R. Angolia to write an authoritative reference book on the subject in 198...8. This SIGNED, NUMBERED "SWORDS OF GERMANY" WW1 WW2 GERMAN SABER DEGEN REFERENCE BOOK is in very good condition, with some light scuffing to the corners, and with some light overall age wear evident (ALL pictured). Otherwise, the book is in fine shape, with no other damage. Most interestingly, it's signed by the author and numbered "69" (of 500) on the sixth page, boasts elegantly illustrated hardcovers, and sports 495 pages full of descriptive text, period pictures, and black and white photographs of German swords from 1900 to 1945, including those by such famous firms as WKC, Carl Eickhorn, E&F Horster, Clemen & Jung, and many others.
