Illustrierte Klassiker #25 featuring the comic adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. The comic book is in used condition.

The comic series Illustrierte Klassiker was published in German by Bildschriftenverlag (BSV) from 1956 to 1972 and ran to 205 issues. It was the German version of the American Classics Illustrated - classics of world literature presented in comic form. The artists were often above average, many of the source novels were adapted very well into the comic medium, and for many young readers it was their first contact with literary classics at the time. On the back of the comics (or on the last page in the booklet), the available and reorderable issue numbers were listed. Using this highest listed number (or HLN), the print run of the comics can be determined, as they were often reprinted multiple times due to strong demand. It is clear that collectors today are primarily interested in first editions.
