Description:
Bando Kriegsgefangenenlager, Japan: Lagerdruckerei, 1917. Softcover. Near Fine. A collection of eight rare printed items little known outside of Germany or Japan. The Bando POW Camp, located near Naruto, Japan, was set up in 1917 to house about one thousand German prisoners, both soldiers and civilians, who had been captured at Tsingtao, China. The collection includes the very rare camp directory: *Kriegsgefangenenlager Bando Adressbuch* (November 1917), with two fine color maps and advertisements; a beautifully illustrated children's book: *Drei Märchen* meant to be sent home to family and friends in Germany; and the final six consecutive issues of *Die Baracke* (April - September, 1919), an illustrated monthly "Zeitung für das Kriegsgefangenenlager" [Newspaper for Prisoners of War]. All eight items are remarkably well-preserved, in very good to near fine condition. Unlike other Japanese POW camps, the German prisoners at Bando were given an unusual level of freedom, and were allowed to…
