Folio.(9.25" x 12.125") 2 volumes. Full blue cloth with black-stamped lettering to upper board and spine, with a centered gilt Olympic bell device to the cover, rear blank. Minor edgewear, corners rubbed with tiny loss to tips, small (1/4") closed tears to board edges to Vol.II. Prior owner's name in ink to front and rear pastedowns, another in pencil to the first free endpapers. Three half-dollar-sized abrasions/loss to pastedowns, which appear to be from glue removal. Each volume is 100% complete with tipped-in photos to every spot wanting one. Both books were slightly bowed from the additional thickness of glued-in photos, and the pages were wavy for the same reason. The best-looking set of these books we have seen, dare I call them Near Fine? Nazi-era propaganda photo book commemorating the 1936 Summer and Winter Olympic Games, which were held in Berlin and Garmisch-Partenkirchen, respectively. It was published by a tobacco company that distributed collectible photo albums—customers would purchase cigarettes and collect the included photo cards to paste into the books.
