The notorious "Mimikry" issue of the illustrated German magazine Arbeiter-Illustrierte Zeitung featuring a cover photomontage of Goebbels and Hitler by John Heartfield. The caption reads, "When all attempts to convey National Socialist ideas to the working class failed, Goebbels had one last desperate idea: he persuaded the "Führer" to wear a Karl Marx beard in the future when addressing workers." Founded in 1924 by German Communist Willi Münzenberg, AIZ published news and events of interest to workers, and became famous for its worker-submitted photographs. Heartfield became affiliated with the magazine in 1930 and contributed over 200 photomontages over the magazine's final eight years. It was forced to relocate from Germany to Prague in 1933 where it ceased in 1938. Newspaper format printed on coated stock, 242-256 p., illustrated. Wear along fold, small split at spine fold.
