    You've got them right. Allow me to fill in the blank: The bride's first name was Maria. The mayor was Philipp Wilhelm Jung. (Actually, by Nov. 1944 his successor Hanns Blaschke; but it looks like a printed signature and apparently, the old copies were used up.)

    And all we got from the registrar was a cookbook...

    From what I understand, in most cases the book was graciously accepted and then transferred to its permanent residence holding down a bookshelf, where it could well have resided until you bought it if that shelf were still in its place. Evidently Hitler's second struggle was getting people to actually read his book.

    Nice item all the same. I'm looking for one with the dust jacket myself, which I believe was called the people's edition.

    Reciting lengthy passages from Mein Kampf sure gets those juices flowing... especially with the women folk

    In Germany such books cost today around 60-70 euros so $80 is a normal price. Not too cheap but not too high also. Almost every family in Germany had one. Most of them are never opened and so in very good condition:-).
