Remarques
Remarkable periodical published by the National Socialists, ostensively as an illegal, satirical journal. A rare complete run of this subtle collaborationist propaganda publication. One of the contributors to the periodical was Willy van der Heide (= W.H.M. van den Hout), better known as the author of the Bob Evers series. (cf. Groeneveld, Zwaard van de geest, p.86).
Reprint of the so-called "Valse Gil", originally published in The Hague, 1944 by Ons Volk as counter-propaganda against the publishers of the true Gil.
