Condition B+ / A-: minor abrasions and repaired tears at edges; minor abrasions with slight overpainting at vertical and horizontal folds.

The contrast between text and image pointedly and wittily demonstrates the disjuncture between Nazi ideology and reality . . . particularly striking here is the degree to which Efimov's caricature of Goebbels resembles Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse" (Windows on the War p. 169).
