This hardcover album, produced by Cigaretten-Bilderdienst Hamburg-Bahrenfeld in 1936, is Volume I of the official "Olympia 1936" series. The album is dedicated to the Olympic Winter Games with a preview of the Berlin Summer Olympics, presented entirely in German. The blue cloth cover displays moderate wear, including edge fraying, scuffing, discoloration, and minor cloth loss. Inside are numerous photographic cigarette cards documenting athletes, events, and moments from the Games, accompanied by period text. Both black-and-white and color images are present, with historical Olympic content and a section covering previous Games. The original fold-out map at the back is present. The interior pages show age toning and some spotting, while the binding remains intact and cards are largely accounted for, some loose. This example represents a complete, historically focused collectible reflecting pre-war Olympic history. GE/SW
