Complete single year of the magazine, whose editorial in issue 1 raises with the sentences: "We begin .... a magazine of colorful life. St. Pauli magazine is supposed to derive its purpose of existence, its justification for existence from the abundance of that colorful life that is reflected in the international metropolises such as Paris, New York, London and last lot least in Hamburg (sic). ... St. Pauli will always remain the centre of Hamburg, which is socially entertaining and entertaining." The editor was the writer Walter Anatole Persich (b. 5. ==References====External links== 23. He also wrote short stories and novels under the pseudonym Christoph Walter Drey. His books often played in the Hanseatic milieu, against a seaman's background or in exotic worlds. Due to his chatting-pleasing style, the works were successful and were often printed in several editions. Some books also experienced new editions in the postwar period. Persich remained in Germany during the Nazi dictatorship and described himself as "unpolitical" people. However, at the time of World War II he also published books with a propagandist tendency ("Winston Churchill ganz ‚privat‘ - adventurer, lord, criminal", "Zaharoff der Demon Europas"). In the early 1950s, Persich and others founded the Paul Abraham Committee in Hamburg to promote the return of the severely ill composer Paul Abraham from American exile (cf. DLL, Sp. 1053). St.Pauli magazine brought short stories, reports, event and film reviews, poems and much more.In addition to Persich, authors such as A. R. Meyer, H. Harbeck, O. Kalenter and William Quindt. Especially about dancers has been reported again and again, for example about the Josephine-Baker-show with Allegretti Andersen, the Irving Sisters, Eva Held, Poldi and Borén as well as about jazz musicians like Buddie Gilmore, Sam Wooding etc. - Detailed table of contents on request. – Very well preserved. - Of the greatest rarity. Only the National Library in Leipzig owns issues 1 and 2 (with the proven erroneous note: "only published issues").
