AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Karl Kraus – The Flame. Complete photomechanical reprint of all issues, Nos. 1–922 (Vienna 1899–1936)
The complete series of the legendary satirical magazine “The Flame” – the master work of Karl Kraus, who wrote almost all contributions by himself from 1911 onward. The Kösel reprint, edited and introduced by Heinrich Fischer, reproduces the magazine in its original large format on good white paper. This is the first edition of the Kösel reprint (1968–1973), not the later, smaller reprint by Zweitausendeins (1977).
- Kösel-Verlag, Munich, 1968–1973
- Edited with a foreword by Heinrich Fischer
- 39 volumes, complete
- Red original full hardcover with back-title, octavo (approx. 20 cm)
- Total approx. 22,000 pages
- Language: German
Condition: Good. Bindings solid, pages clean, without annotations, underlinings, or markings. Paper slightly and uniformly darkened with age. In about half of the volumes the red spine cloth is faded at the edges due to light exposure (the covers remain color-fresh) – typical for this edition.
Heavy packages (approx. 30 kg). Pickup in Frankfurt am Main possible.
