S-103 “Die Sirene” - Reichs Luftschutzbund
News-Magazine (Tabloid Format)
A fascinating item! This tabloid-style magazine is about 10.75”
by 14”, with the fold point along the left edge. There is no binding method
(staples, string) – only the fold holds the pages in place (about 12 page
sides). Titled “Die Sirene (The Siren) – The Illustrated Magazine of the
Reichs Luftschutzbundes”, this is issue “Number 4”, and the “First
February Issue 1943”. There is light fraying to the cover edges (one small
chunk torn on the right edge – but present) - and the newsprint paper magazine
has been folded forever. Articles give info on how to reduce damage and fire
from incendiary bombs, etc., double checking houses after a bombing attack for
incendiary ordinance and more. Interesting photos include Luftschutz guys
wearing captured steel helmets (Soviet, etc.), a Luftschutz Officer in full
uniform with leather leg protectors, RLB dagger, etc. Very neat item!
