PRESSAC, Jean-Claude. Auschwitz: Technique and Operation of the Gas Chambers. New York: Beate Klarsfeld Foundation, 1989. English.
The most comprehensive and exhaustive research ever published of the Auschwitz extermination camp and its gas chambers. The author, Jean-Claude Pressac (1944-2003), was a Holocaust denier and revisionist who decided to investigate the subject in order to disprove the claims that the Germans murdered Jews in Auschwitz. Following his years-long research he changed his own views and proved the truth about the death camps at Auschwitz. Profusely illustrated with hundreds of original German architectural plans and diagrams, photographs taken both during and after the war, and many German documents, with translations. Only 600 copies printed, of which 500 were donated to Jewish libraries and research institutes and only 100 were ever offered for sale. 564 pp, 45.5x30 cm. Very good condition.

52 posters of the Musֳ©e des Horreurs series - "the monstrosity exhibitions", which portrays Dreyfus and his supporters in a grotesque and animalistic manner. The posters were illustrated under the bogus name of V. Lenepveu. Lithographic print, hand painted, France, [1899-1900].
The posters were first published in autumn 1899 upon the opening of the world fair in Paris, and after Dreyfusג€™s retrial. The posters were advertised weekly until a year later, in which the advertisement of the series of posters was halted by instruction of the Ministry of Interior.
The entire series includes 51 posters, in which Dreyfus, ֳ‰mile Zola, Georges Picquart and others appear.
The collection includes an additional poster signed by the same artist as the other posters in the series, however, it does not belong to the famous series and differs in its content and design: the name of the series appears only on the bottom in small letters and in contrast to the other posters, in which an animal with the head of a human appears, this poster portrays a rape scene (see Kedem catalog no. 11 item 524; We were unable to find this poster in the collections which contain the ג€completeג€ series).
An average of 65.5X50 cm. Condition varies, generally good, glued upon linen fabric for exhibition and preservation.
