With numerous photographic illustrations, including 8 photomontages by John Heartfield. Berlin, Neuer Deutscher Verlag, 1929–33. 39 x 28 cm. Contemporary cloth binding with blind-stamped title on the cover (VIII, issues 1–25) and original illustrated covers (slightly browned and stained, spine torn, some with marginal wear). A fine collection of the socialist newspaper published in Berlin from 1924 to 1933, which already had a circulation of 200,000 copies in 1926. - Included are: 26 issues from Volume VIII (1929): Nos. 1–25 (bound together in red linen) and No. 43. - 16 issues from Volume X (1931): Nos. 1, 2, 9–10, 12–14, 16, 18–19, 22–25, and 27–29. - 10 issues from Volume XI (1932), the last volume published in its entirety in Germany: Nos. 2–3, 5, 8–10, 12, 14, 28, and 46. — 7 issues from Volume XII (1933): Nos. 3–6, 8–9, and 10, the last issue still published in Germany. After the National Socialists banned the “AIZ,” Hermann Leupold (pseudonym after 1933: Karel Vanek) was instructed in late March 1933 to begin publishing the journal in Prague. - Works by John Heartfield, who made his debut in issue 33 of the AIZ in 1929, include the collages “Kleiner SA-Heldenbilderbogen” (“Small SA Heroes Picture Sheet”), “Man muß eine besondere Veranlagung zum Selbstmord haben...” (“One Must Have a Special Disposition for Suicide...”), and “Aufrüstung tut Not” (“Arms Build-up Is Necessary”). - All issues are complete. - Browned due to the paper; some pages have discoloration along the edges; the cover is partially torn along the spine and partially detached. *
