I have in my possession some fitness manuals from WW2 and before. Who would pay me to translate them? Who would publish them? And what about copyright issues?

Still looking for a copy of Erich Rahn's "Jiu Jitsu die unsichtbare Waffe", btw, which was the close combat system, along with basic boxing in some cases.
I think there may be some interest among english-speaking right-wingers.
Go look up copyrights in the US. Since these were likely published in the 30s or 40s and before, and most copyrights expired after like 70 years from that era, they could potentially already be in the public domain.

Any way to get some money from it? I'd give 'em out for free if I was richer, but man, I need the money.
Landon Harris
fucking juden kill yourself
Leo Nguyen
I'm not that Socialist, bro.
Adrian Butler
not politics doesn't belong on this board and you are a jew trying to monetize something that is public domain now.
Austin Peterson
Good point, but I thought it would be nice to translate old-fashioned German in breach to modern-day English and get some money that way. If no one's interested, that's okay too.
Jack Brooks
Individualism is the curse of the modern man. You’ll die by it.
Cooper Sanders
I'll also die by starvation.
But if it's really such a bad idea to you guys, then just let this thread die.
Mason Ramirez
Just sell the books fag, try selling them to some nazi guy who would pay a lot. Should be easy as fuck.
Zachary Barnes
Do whatever.
>I'll also die by starvation. You can survive with very little amounts of food. I personally donate blood plasma to cover my food expenses. Roughly 30 - 50€ a week for food, 10€ if I'm saving or 0€ if I'm fasting (1 week period once a month).
Hey krautfriend - just scan them into a pdf and post the document on scribd or some other site. The rest of us will do the translating, this has potential.
Jayden Lopez
that could work -- just publish it for $1.99 on amazon books
won't be instant gratification -- will take 3mos-6mos
arbeit macht frei kraut-bro
Landon Anderson
Post the scans, anons can live translate it.
Tyler Rogers
if your smart enough to read an old german book and not smart enough to cover your minimal life expenses you need to kill yourself

>if your smart enough to read an old german book and not smart enough to cover your minimal life expenses you need to kill yourself You're talking to the wrong germ Herr Bergjude.
Book title is R-A-Lohmeyer-Krudzki+Lehrbuch-für-zweckmäßige-Körperbildung-im-Rahmen-neuzeitlicher-Leibesübungen. Searching on google returns nothing, any other anons wanna search elsewhere for it?
how can i contact you? im interested in the content of the book but i fear you will never be productive enough for me to purchase the translated or original version in the future
Nolan Roberts
I don't think those books have any value beyond the esthetic/historical. The science of gains has advanced in giant leaps since then.
Jacob Wilson
There are thousands of fitness instructions available in Jow Forums archives. This is for the novelty of it. Haven't you ever held an authentic pre war German novel and just admired it for surviving?
Isaiah Rivera
Limpert Verlag still exists. It's a well known publisher of sports books. you should try contacting them. i'm sure they would like to be reminded of their history. they are not based in Dresden any more though, thanks to Bomber Harris
Alexander Ross
Kraut, I dug up a list of libraries that currently have a copy, are you near any of these? If so, you should go get it and scan it for us I think OP got butthurt and bailed.
one of them is not too far away but they are too old to borrow so I would have to scan it completely while there I've sent them a message asking them if its possible because i know some are really careful with letting people work with books of this age thanks btw for the link and if it all works out I'll let you guys know and post it here the same thing goes for OP if he actually goes through with hie plan I'll buy it and post it here for free for everyone i dont want to see the knowledge of my forefathers used to make quick buck
William Brown
Get a load of this subhuman collectivist piece of shut.
Ryder Rodriguez
Translate and release it for free but accept donations. Or maybe sell paper copies for anons that want it and release a pdf for free.
