Overall in very good condition for a phone book
.
The book was rebound using the original boards and spine. Now the often fragile
binding of a phone book is tight and strong again.
Symbols on front cover scratched out. Some names are marked.
Else ok with minor traces of age and use.
Please note, that the 1940 edition is much rarer, than the 1941 edition. Try to find one!!
Because it was not allowed to keep the 1940 edition, once the 1941 edition had been published.
You need to give the 1940 edition back to receive the 1941 edition.
The 1941 edition was the last one until defeat of Germany in 1945.
Thus you will see the already rare 1941 edition more often, than this 1940 edition.
Because you had never give the 1941 edition back in order to receive the new one,
since the Third Reich collapsed.
Approx/Measurements: 11-2/3" x 8 " and ~5.3 lb.
