it would appear they are a cartoon Magazine, many look to be very anti Semitic..Apparently scantily clad Women are a feature

I wouldnt have a clue mate, not my sort of thing (scantily clad Women excluded)...They look interesting from an Historical point of view, but for me i just find that stuff too confronting to own.

While the magazine had thoroughly adjusted to the Nazi era, with its Third Reich-period "satire" solely directed against the actual and perceived enemies of the regime, it should be noted that it had not always been thus.

Lustige Blätter was already around before Hitler was even born. It was a weekly satire/humor magazine that was established in 1886 and remained in business until late 1944.

Among its pre-Third Reich contributors were many highly renowned German authors and artists, including a number of Jewish ones.
