Description
A scarce pair of German cigarette card books, both titled 'Olympia 1936', one book creted for the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, the other for the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmissh. Both books were issued by Cigaretten Bilderdienst, Altona, 168pp. and 128pp. respectively, 9.5 x 12.75 in. hardbound blue cloth with dust jackets, one repaired. These so-called 'cigarette books' contained historical text and were supplied to smokers who then filled the book with color photos obtained when they purchased cigarettes.

Both books are filled with all of the appropriate photographs.
