Very diifcicult to tell from these photos no real details of the writing or stamps can be made out but it looks very new and little used , as these buchs were with the soldiers they usually have general wear etc associated with regular handling !!

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Very difficult, yes, it's a late SB but my eyes.....Sorry, i am not superman.
Paul , should there normally be a signature of the owner just under were the photo goes too ?
Unless of course it wasn't in use for very long. The only dates I can make out is September 1944 and April 1944 which would make it quite a late issue.
I added the pics to the thread.
99% certain it is bad. The cloth tape to the spine looks like that found on British made re-enactor copies.
Cheers, Ade.
