Title: Die deutschen Farben
(in English: The German colours)
Medium: book
Main author(s): Veit Valentin; Ottfried Neubecker
Secondary author(s): Edwin Redslob (foreword)
Edition (publisher: place): Verlag von Quelle & Meyer: Leipzig (Germany)
Language: German (High)
Edition date: 1928 (1st ed.)
Pages: 240+12
Format: 220×275(×30) mm
Weight: 950 g

A masterpiece of vexillological research, written by a historian working for the Reichsministerium des Innern (Veit Valentin) and a (young) heraldist (Ottfried Neubecker). Most of the book is text (not straightforward to read as it is printed in Fraktur font) with only twelve plates of excellent flags and coats-of-arms images by Neubecker. The first part studies in depth the origin of the German colours, both the black-red-yellow and the black-white-red; the second part contains many literal quotations from historical legislation on German national flags since 1804 plus an excellent critical bibliography.
