FIRST LOOK 2023: Two scarce Nazi-era Judaica books of film director Erwin Leiser

 

Two Scarce Nazi-Era Judaica Books from the Personal Library of Film Director Erwin Leiser   

Philo-Atlas: Handbuch für die Jüdische Auswanderung and Philo-Lexikon: Handbuch des Jüdische Wissens 

Both books were published in Berlin by Philo Verlag and are bound in the original printed publisher’s linen. 

The Philo-Atlas (1938) is much more than a book of maps. It is a guide for Jewish emigration, spelling out which countries still accept migrants, how much money do they demand from those who wish to enter, and which occupations are needed in the prospective host country. 

The Philo-Lexikon (1936) is a handbook of Jewish knowledge, intended to deepen consciousness and give both intellectual and practical orientation. 

 Both books are from the library of Erwin Leiser (1923-1996), a German-born Jew and director, writer, and actor, best known for his 1960 documentary Mein Kampf, composed of clips from old newsreels and film obtained from Allied and German sources. Leiser has hand-signed each of the books. His bookplate appears on the front flyleaf of the Philo-Atlas. 

 Price (for the set) $1800.
