Berlin 1941. Small

Good.
CS 3478, Daehn 991.
A note from BCD: The mere thought that this book was printed during
the first year of WWII makes the reader look at it under a very different
light. The masterful enlargements of Berlin’s most stunning Greek coins that
would become almost inaccessible for the next half century speak to the viewer
in a way that transcends traditional numismatics in the sense that we know and
understand it.
