Attractive - and scarcely found! - smaller-sized, period WH-instruction-booklet entitled: 'Die Pistole 08 - Beschreibung und Handhabung' (or instruction- ie. training-manual for the P08 pistol) as was published by the: 'Heinz Denckler Verlag'

The neat and somewhat smaller-sized booklet - only sized: 15 x 10,5 cms. - is naturally fully complete and retains all its 34 pages - containing various (ie. 37) illustrations and/or glued-in (to be folded out-) leaflet (ie. 'Tafel') - and is just somewhat 'yellowed' caused by normal age and storage for decades. The example on offer here has been used (ie. read) but is void of any damage whatsoever (normal traces of wear and/or age are, however, present as can be seen on the pictures). As possibly known, has this booklet also been reproduced: this is naturally a fine original and/or period example. The neat booklet provides the reader with text and illustrations and gives a complete insight 'on properly using the standard WH pistol model P08 and its various accesoiries' (something that was of course deemed needed within the German army). These sought-after publications - as published by the 'Heinz Denckler Verlag' based in Berlin - were not 'standard-issued' manuals but had to be privately-acquired by the soldiers ie. NCO's and/or officers. It should be noted that these small-sized, instruction-manuals are very collectable and can easily be graded 'scarce'!
