Description
The catalog is hardbound, in stiff card covers. There is no publication date, but it was clearly printed after the war had begun. Approximately 8-1/2 inches by 9-1/4 inches. 160 pages. The catalog was published by 'Pinnecke & Co., K-G.' (which was founded in 1913, and which apparently remains in business in Germany as 'Pinnecke & Engelhardt GmbH'). The catalog identifies the company as 'Spezialitat: Militarschiessheiben Schiesstechnische Apparate' ('Specialty: Military shooting targets, shooting technical devices'). The catalog offers a wide variety of marksmanship targets, award documents, and plaques. The catalog also offers swords and bayonets as well as artwork which includes images of the Berghoff and portraits of Adolf Hitler and Hermann Goring. The catalog also offers busts of Hitler and artwork depicting stags and game. The rear of the catalog contains removable order forms, some of which were detached and used. The pages of the catalog exhibit age toning, but overall the volume is in very good to excellent condition.
