Heinz Brandt, der Fremdenlegionär Nr. 101-110 (1915.)

The issues in this set belong to the war issues of the series. They were published during 1915, when the series had already completely switched to a patriotic-war mode. The title was changed to Heinz Brandt der ehemalige Fremdenlegionär, and the stories were entirely devoted to the battles of the German army on various fronts of the First World War.

The series was created in the context of the long-standing German campaign against the French Fremdenlegie (Foreign Legion). The German Empire actively warned young men about the dangers of serving in legionary units, which were often portrayed as a modern slave army and cannon fodder for French colonial wars. The Casablanca-Affäre in 1908 was particularly important.

Heinz Brandt is depicted as a young, brave and patriotic German who, after the outbreak of war, deserts from the Foreign Legion and joins the German army, fighting on various battlefields. This perfectly reflected the German mood during the war. These numbers are classic Kriegs-Heftromane that reflect the German mood in the second year of the First World War.

Copy Condition:

• Professionally bound as one unit (all 10 issues preserved in their original form).

• Vivid color covers with attractive illustrations typical of the genre.
• General condition: very good for editions older than 110 years.

This set is particularly interesting because it is extremely rare available in bound form. It is a continuous block of 10 issues from 1915. It has significant historical value - a document of the time and popular war literature of the First World War. Ideal for collectors of German Heftroman, Kriegs series, militaria or WWI history.

The format is the original kiosk format (Mignon-Verlag, Dresden), bound in a hardcover. The condition is described with the utmost precision. We recommend viewing the detailed photos.

Contemporary collectors increasingly value these types of bound editions because they offer better protection and practicality compared to the fragile individual Hefts. A great addition to a collection with Perry Rhodan, Jerry Cotton or other classic German series.
