In our 45+ years in the old book business we have never seen an example of an Inhaltsverzeichnis or Index for any editions of Der Hoheitsträger (The Standard Bearers) magazines in Europe or the United States, except for a single example in our archive.

We have decided to offer our 5-7/8 x 8-1/4 inch Inhaltsverzeichnis for Hoheitsträger magazines published in 1939 and 1940 on this USMBOOKS web page.

With this 72-page tabbed Index one can quickly find which issues of Der Hoheitsträger contained articles about the latest Nazi Party directives, Jews, freemasons, National Socialist Weltanschauung, population statistics, the national economy, Nazi Ordensburgen, national health, social programs in Nazi Germany, foreign politics, mother and child, agriculture, culture, national holidays, film and radio, as well as an extensive selection of material for Nazi Party leaders to use in their education of Standard Bearers in the making.

There is simply no other way to know what the contents of these rare magazines is other than to go through each of them one at a time.

There was no more important magazine circulated in Nazi Germany than Der Hoheitsträger (The Standard Bearers). It was published during the Third Reich for distribution to Gauleiters, Kreisleiters and other high officials of the Nazi Party and its paramilitary organizations such as Generals of the SS, SA, NSFK, NSKK, etc. It was circulated to the Commandant and a select group of Officers at each of the Ordensburgen and to the highest ranking people in the Hitler Youth, Reichsarbeitsdienst, Deutsche Arbeitsfront, etc. - people responsible for the entire “political appearance of the Nazi Movement” within their zones (Gau, Kreis, Ortsgruppe, etc.); people representing the Nazi Party at institutions that were responsible for setting the right example and behavior, maintaining discipline and order, as well as people supervising all party members in their spheres of responsibility. 

The pages have of course yellowed somewhat during the last eight decades but the overall condition of this Inhaltsverzeichnis for Der Hoheitsträger issues from 1939 and 1940 is very good. No writing, no odor, nothing missing.
