This is a very nice example of the very scarce book Deutschland in Paris (Germany in Paris) published by Heinrich Hoffmann Verlag in München (Munich), Germany with an introduction by Hitler’s architect Albert Speer and a foreword by Nazi Reichswirtschaftminister Dr. Hjalmar Schacht. The soft cover book measures 7-1/2 x 10-1/2 inches and has 128 pages.
Naturally, the subject of the World Exposition in Paris in 1937 covered a wide range. Among the 200 or so photos are in-depth views of the entire German Pavilion at the exhibition.
captions are in German,
English, Italian
and French.
German industrial power and innovation took center stage at the 1937 World Exhibition in Paris with notable exhibits of Mercedes-Benz cars and engines, science, institutional silver service sets, electronics, table service items, toys, glass, ceramics, optical equipment, art, furniture, musical instruments, etc. The ubiquitous swastika emblem of Nazi Germany is as expected, evident everywhere in the background, in flags, wallpaper, iron railings, windows, etc.
The last few pages in the book show pictures from the “New Reich” such as Hitler's alpine home the Berghof above Berchtesgaden, the Honor Temple in Munich, etc.
Deutschland in Paris is one of the rarest and most interesting of all Third Reich Hoffmann photo books. This example is original to the Third Reich period in Germany, it is NOT a modern reprint, complete with its original dust jacket which was laminated by a previous owner to preserve it. The book is very rare and in very good condition. The 'blemish' on the photo on the right edge of the front cover above is a reflection, not damage.
