Condition: Good.

Vintage Nazi pulp booklet from the 1960s, written by 'Werner Klaus' - a pseudonym of the Dutch writer Herman Nicolaas van der Voort (1900-1982) who used many pen names but is best known for his Edward Multon detective stories. Pantserreeks 5.

Typical cover artwork depicting a German renegade soldier assaulting a semi-willing blond young woman. The covers were made in Spain, commissioned by the publisher. On the back side is an advertisement for 'Vrouwenkamp' by Esther Mardo [= also an alias of Van der Voort!].

¶ The pornofication of World War II started in the USA with Nazi pulp releases in which the emaciated prisoners were replaced by beautiful women in bikinis and lingerie. Or in uniform as sadistic female camp executioners, 'Gretchens' who sexually went wild on captive American soldiers.

In the Netherlands, this 'junk' (with precursors as early as around 1950) was published in the early 1960s by the Rotterdam publisher Hendrik Cornelissen. De Vrije Pers produced about 400,000 copies per year in various series. The circulation per title must have been around 4000 copies. They have been got rid of just as massively over time. Cf. Sliggers p. 221-229.
