    VERY RARE ORIGINAL 1944 PHOTO BOOK GERMAN ARTILLERY IN THE USSR !!
    "Artillerie im Osten"
    (Artillery on the Eastern Front)
    I'm offering for sell a very, very rare and heavily illustrated german late-war photo book about artillery used on the Eastern Front with all terrible effects of the attack on the USSR !
    This photo hardcover book measures 6-3/4 x 9-1/2 inches, contains 303 very heavily illustrated pages and was published by Wilhelm Limpert Verlag in 1944 in Berlin.
    The excellent late - war photo material gives a great overview of the war on the Eastern Front and all kinds of the artillery used against Soviets. As well as many pictures depicts german soldiers in difficulty. It's a very rare view in german books of losing german army, heavily wounded or freezing to death soldiers.
    This is the only one known book of that time showing symptoms of german defeat in the theatre of war !!
    There are a lot of pictures depicting Waffen - XX and Wehrmacht units in action, all kind of light, middle and very heavy artillery, railway guns, super heavy mortars (famous Karl - Gerät "Thor"), armoured divisions with StuG IV, Flak units with Heeres - Flak in winter camouflage, famous Schwerer Gustaw called Dora (the biggest ever made railway gun), extremely tough fights for every pinch of soil in very heavy weather conditions and many, many more... Really great book!
    This 78 year old book is in very good condition !
