Original WWII-era German “Mein Kampf” wedding edition (“Ehestandsausgabe”) published in 1939 by Zentralverlag der NSDAP / Franz Eher Nachf., München. This example is an official municipal presentation copy issued by the town of Engelskirchen and presented to a newly married couple as part of the Third Reich wedding tradition.

The book retains its highly desirable complete original protective slipcase, which is often missing from surviving examples. The dedication page is handwritten in period ink and includes the names of the recipients, the presentation date, and official municipal presentation text.

This edition contains:

  • Original portrait of Adolf Hitler
  • Gothic-script printing throughout
  • Combined two-volume edition in one binding
  • 1939 dated title page
  • Original decorative hardcover binding
  • Complete original slipcase

Wedding editions of “Mein Kampf” were officially distributed by German municipalities to newly married couples during the Third Reich period as ceremonial state gifts. These books served both as propaganda material and symbolic state-issued household items, making them historically significant artifacts of daily life in Nazi Germany.

Condition is overall very good and highly displayable, showing only honest age and storage wear. The binding remains solid, pages are clean, and the original slipcase survives complete.

A historically significant and increasingly difficult-to-find complete wedding edition with strong collector, display, and research appeal.

Condition exactly as shown in the photographs.
