Description from HiBid
Published circa 1934 by cigarette manufacturer Eckstein-Halpaus G.m.b.H. in Dresden, this original softcover cigarette card album is titled Ruhmesblätter Deutscher Geschichte (Glorious Pages in German History). Bound in beige card wrappers with gilt embossed lettering, an eagle crest, and a central gilt classical frieze relief depicting historic German leaders, the album presents a pictorial history of German military and political history. The interior contains German text printed in Fraktur script alongside tipped-in color artwork plates depicting key historical epochs, including the German Middle Ages, the reign of Frederick the Great, and the 1809 Tyrolean Rebellion against Napoleonic forces featuring paintings by Defregger and Northen. The album measures 12.8 x 9.8 inches and is incomplete with 28 photos missing.
Condition is consistent with age and light handling. The softcover card covers display minor edge wear, light corner creasing, and faint surface toning. Interior pages remain clean, and firmly bound.
