Publications by AWA-Verlag E.F.Flatau & Co., Munich


The following books of the AWA-Verlag E.F.Flatau & Co., Munich, were published with full cloth-binding and a dust jacket. These were lending-library editions with a cover picture which was identical to the jackets of the first Editionss between about 1951 and 1960.

There are also some AWA Paperback editions (like Die donnernde Herde, Zwillings-Sombreros, Wuestengold, Schatten auf der Faehrte and a few others) which were published between July 1955 and about 1960.

Though our inquiries were intensive, we're sorry to say that we haven't found out the exact number of editions of Zane Grey's writings, which were published in the AWA Verlag.
