Look inside one of the great visually interesting magazines of the Sixties

































First off this book is in German. I think it's the only book about this monthly magazine for young adults. Started in 1959 as a bi-monthly then it quickly became a monthly until the last issue in June 1971. The book is about sixty percent text and the remainder spreads from the magazine, a lot of these fill spreads in the book. A nice feature is all the published covers on a fold-out inside the front and back covers. The last fifty-five pages have a listing of all the writers, photographers and illustrators. If you want to see how visually amazing the magazine was have a look at the Past Print blog which has selected pages from issue nine in 1960 onward.
