‎Volk und Heimat 1936‎

‎Third Reich annual publication "Volk und Heimat", in German, for Germans living in Brazil. For the year 1936. Softcover, as published. 392 pp. in-8, 16.5 x 23 cm. Plenty of ads, with blue pictures (for ads) and black-and-white pictures for the "serious" content. Many companies either unknown today or famous, i.e. Siemens, Philips, the Antarctica beer and so on. The first 40 pages are ads and a calendar/blank (intended for handwritten notes) pages. Several texts, including "Der Lebenslauf Des Fuhrers", "Germany ist Schön", all written in Gothic script. Content about the Berlin Olympic Games of 1936, planes, boats, historical narratives and other topics. Several full page black-and-white pictures. Published each year for the "Brasilianer Deutsche", these profuse documents are a lively testimony of how a highly specific segment of the Brazilian society saw its native country and itself... or how the Third Reich wanted them to see the world. Many copies were destroyed or stocked in poor conditions during and after WW2.‎
