Description
You are bidding on an original WW2 German Wehrmacht Color Print from the illustrated series titled, “Das Heer im Grossdeutschen Freiheitskampf.” This example depicts German Army infantry troops in the field and is printed from a period-issued photographic image set.
This series was produced as part of an officially sanctioned Wehrmacht image program intended to document and present the German Army in combat and training during the war. Prints from “Das Heer im Grossdeutschen Freiheitskampf” were issued as individual plates, each showing different branches, units, environments, and campaign imagery, and were commonly distributed loose rather than bound.
Made of paper, this example is an original wartime color print, not a reproduction. Printed on period paper with image and caption text below reading “Das Heer im Grossdeutschen Freiheitskampf” Typical format size for this series is approximately 13″ x 14″ (print area slightly smaller), with blank margins. Condition is GOOD overall, showing light handling wear, minor edge wear, and some age toning and spotting consistent with wartime paper. Some small tears, but nothing that detracts as they are in the border area. PERFECT for any collection or display!
