Uniformen-Markt was a semi-monthly German military magazine from December 1, 1934 (monthly up to the 2.1935 issue), which primarily deals with the entire uniform, effects, flags, parament, medals and decorations sectors of the Wehrmacht and the National Socialist sports associations busy. From 1943 to 1945 it was published every six months as a German uniform magazine in the Berlin war community publisher before it was finally discontinued.

history

The magazine was printed by the Berlin publishing house Otto Dietrich, whose owner Otto Dietrich was State Secretary in the Reich Ministry for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda under Joseph Goebbels and Reich Press Chief. Subscription prices were 1.50 Reichsmarks (RM) every quarter . In 1943 a single issue cost 0.70 RM. In addition to the knowledge of uniforms and flags, the magazine also devoted a considerable part to German medals and decorations as well as to foreign religious orders. The resulting articles dealt with topics from almost all of Europe as well as large parts of Asia, North, Central and South America and even Africa. Among the numerous authors of the specialist articles were recognized experts such as Kurt-Gerhard Klietmann and Ottfried Neubecker .

The magazine also served to publish the information from the Presidential Chancellery of the Order's Chancellery. It was thus also an instrument of the NSDAP as well as of the party and district leaderships for correct uniforms, which had permeated all areas of everyday life in the Third Reich. It also published the foundation of numerous newly created German orders, decorations and combat badges and was therefore very popular with members of the Wehrmacht as a front-line newspaper , which was underscored by numerous letters to the editor and inquiries. In January 1943 the magazine Uniformen-Markt was merged with the magazine Uniform und Spaten to form the new German Uniforms magazine , as it was said, due to measures to restrict war production (lack of paper). After the merger of the two magazines, the magazine section continued to publish Uniform and Spaten as a press organ as a bulletin of the presidential chancellery of the Führer in matters of orders, of the Reich Labor Service in matters of uniform, as well as the performance community of German order makers and the uniform tailor group. The uniform market continued to be the official organ of the uniform industry and flag manufacturers as well as uniform effects manufacturers, as well as the cap industry.

The last issue of the magazine appeared in January 1945. A discontinuation of the magazine was not published in the last issue.
