Near Fine; literally no salient flaws. Standard very modest age toning, and a subscriber's address, lower right corner. That's about it ! See scans. Very High Grade example. Published for German-Americans in the mid-20th century, but you don't have to be able to read German to appreciate the covers, the removable interior color plates in some issues (this issue's is in fact black and white, a photograph of Burg Epstein am Taunus castle ruins in Germany), the craft pages, short fiction (sometimes illustrated), the frequent geographically whimsical articles, and the excruciatingly home-y black and white photos in Die Hausfrau. This will take ya back. Well, depending on how old you are...Americana, in German. Fetching cover illustration (scan) is the equal of those on English-language magazines of the era that bring much higher prices. Collector's condition. Please see all scans. Lpr4
