Bitch of Buchenwald (Vintage paperback)
 
New York: [Star Distributors], 1970s. War Horrors WA-503, First Edition, paperback original, 12mo softcover, $2.25 cover price, 190pp, perfect-bound, color wrappers, Collectors Club order form present. Vintage paperback, adult erotic novels based on the war crimes of Ilse Koch, wife of a Nazi concentration camp official, and one of the first Nazis brought to trial. You may know her as "The Witch of Buchenwald" (Die Hexe von Buchenwald), or any of the Buchenwald variations, being "The Beast," "Queen," "Red Witch," and "Butcher Widow." Purportedly she flayed tattooed prisoners and had some murdered to prevent their testimonies, and was arrested by the US in 1945, living the rest of her life in prison. Her story sources exploitation films, songs, and vintage magazines and paperbacks (notably Ophelia Press, 1971, and Domenica Di Constanza's "La Chienne de Buchenwald," 1952). This edition seeks to exploit any sexual events that may have happened to Koch, slightly scarcer than the Ophelia Press edition, and with Esposito's eye-catching cover art. Very Good Plus, moderate foxing. From the estate of Andrew J. Offutt, noted science-fiction, fantasy, and underground erotica writer. For consenting, mature audiences.
