Hermann Göring 'Reden und Aufsätze' first copie?

[Reichscollector]

I recently acquired this piece. 'Reden und Aufsätze' from 1938. It doesnt say which 'auflage' it is. Does this mean it is the first 'auflage'? I don't really know how to translate it in English, first copie?

For me it is a special item because, even though the back cover has been discolored by the sun, it fits very well with my other book 'Werk und Mensch' also by Hermann Göring.

I heard some people say that it is rare because they can't find any 1938 first 'auflages' on the internet. But I tend not to believe that because if it would've been so i would've had to pay more for the book (I had to pay 20 euros). What is your opinion?

I recommend doing a Google Search of the Title...It should give you the Date of Copyright/Publication in the description...
I really like the well-decorated Spine with the various Eagles...

It also mentions in 'Reden und Aufsätze' that 'Werk und Mensch' has previously been released as 'first part'. I have werk und mensch too, in mint condition! 11-13. Auflage from 1938. Also with the extra cover for it. It probably hasnt been read, because the paper feels very strong en tends to stay straight instead of bend. It's an amazing book! Those two are a very nice combination for a collection.

This is the page I meant. It's fun to discover things like this in books.
