While the text is in German the rear cover has the contents in French and English. Wikipedia: 'The Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung often abbreviated BIZ was a weekly illustrated magazine published in Berlin from 1892 to 1945. It was the first mass-market German magazine and pioneered the format of the illustrated news magazine. Under the Third Reich the Berliner Illustrirte like all other German publications was subject to Joseph Goebbels' Propaganda Ministry. In the 25 March 1934 issue it began serial publication of Hermann Göring's memoirs written by Eberhard Koebsell but was forced to withdraw them after Goebbels objected. In mid-1934 the Ullstein family business was "aryanised" and the Berliner Illustrirte became an organ of Nazi propaganda; previously non-political with the outbreak of war in 1939 it started featuring stories about the military and German victories.
