I am open to all suggestions, including it being a reprint.
I should say that the "photos" are pretty crude. Next week or so, I'll see if I can scan a couple of pages.
Also, I believe that in post-war Italy, as in many other European countries, there was a ban on the (re)production of material that glorified nazism, fascism and / or the personalities involved with these (i.e. mainly Hitler and Mussolini). I am unsure if this ban is still in place but this piece is... uh... highly politically incorrect to say the least...
But then again.. Italy & rules... right...
I have a (faint) acquaintance who is a professional printer. I'll try to contact him and ask him if he deems this kind of production to have been possible in 1938. I don't expect him to authenticate it, just an opinion on if it would have been possible.
To be continued...
In the mean time, if anybody has any clues towards the signature or can tell me more about the book itself, you have my gratitude...
