WW2 Japanese – MEIN KAMPF – ADOLF HITLER – JAPANESE EDITION – 1940 – VERY RARE!

You are bidding on a FANTASTIC and VERY RARE Japanese version of Adolf Hitler’s, “Mein Kampf” (My Struggle), published in 1940.

After Hitler’s death, copyright of Mein Kampf passed to the state government of Bavaria, which refused to allow any copying or printing of the book in Germany. In 2016, following the expiration of the copyright held by the Bavarian state government, Mein Kampf was republished in Germany for the first time since 1945, which prompted public debate and divided reactions from Jewish groups. A team of scholars from the Institute of Contemporary History in Munich published a German language two-volume almost 2,000-page edition annotated with about 3,500 notes. This was followed in 2021 by a 1,000-page French edition based on the German annotated version, with about twice as much commentary as text.

This is a VERY RARE 1940 Japanese edition of “Mein Kampf” by Adolf Hitler. It was published and printed by in Japanese, and translated by Junjuro Ishikawa. He is known as the person who introduced the existence of the Nazis in Japan at the earliest time. He was also one of the best-known National Socialists in Japan. Though the paper has yellowed, due to the age, there are NO missing pages, and the binding in intact! No tears or damage. A VERY nice and original item for any collection, or display!
