POSTAL PROPAGANDA OF THE THIRD REICH
by Albert L Moore

Third Reich and Nazi propaganda has been the topic of countless books, yet the regime’s use of postal materials is one aspect that has remained largely unexamined. This new, profusely illustrated book offers an overview of the images and messages that filled the mailboxes of Hitler’s subjects and victims. As official documents of Nazi Germany, the stamps, postcards and postmarks used during the time provide the reader with an explicit picture of the types of propaganda messages every German saw. It helps us to better understand this powerful weapon in Hitler’s propaganda arsenal

SS PORCELAIN ALLACH
by (Editor) Tony L Oliver and Michael J Passmore

The small porcelain factory situated at Allach was originally founded in 1935, two years after Hitler's accession to power. In 1936 it was taken over by the Personal Staff Department of the Reichsfuhrer S.S. Heinrich Himmler, and was connected with that department of the Personal Staff headed by S.S. Obersturmbannfuhrer Prof. Diebitsch, which dealt with 'all artistic and architectural questions which interested the Reichsfuhrer'. Fully established as an S.S. economic concern, it was incorporated into the Hauptamt Verwaltung Und Wirtschaft (Main Department for Administration and Economics) in 1939.

COLLECTING THIRD REICH BELT BUCKLES : A RUSSIAN PERSPECTIVE
by Vladimir B Ulyanov

Originally published in Russia, this English translation brings an interesting perspective to collecting Third Reich belt buckles with over 200 photographs of originals and reproductions (including a hitherto unknown variation of the 'RMBO' prototype high leaders buckle). Magnified images enable the reader to identify details and differences between reproductions and fakes. The book details every buckle, including its history, how and where it was obtained. As many of the buckles were illegally excavated, a chapter discusses the history of the so called 'black-diggers' who remove artefacts from battlefields and grave sites.
