1. Interesting German ww2 IG Farben company thread sample booklet. Includes a 6 page booklet that appears to reference colorization of wool and man made fibers or silk. The main part consists of 22 thread sample and one swatch- including thread that is silk, wool, and a few man made silks. Each one exhibits a different color or dye. Highly interesting overall, especially for the German uniform/headgear or insignia collector. IG Farben was implicated in war crimes because of having a large production facility near the Auschwitz concentration camp that used forced labor and also being partner in the production of Zyklon B, the gas that was used in the death camps. Overall the booklet shows age, but is near excellent and a great reference piece. From my personal collection. $175 NEW
