What a rare find this catalog was. I can't read any German so I'll just give you as much information on the cover writing that will help you in searching for such a catalog. Here in a concise format is what I find on front cover in writing:Herbst Winter 1958-1959
Grossversandhaus QUELLE
Forth in Bayern
Hauptkatalog 584
Gultig Vom 1. September 1958
Bis 1. Marz 1959
The catalog is in layout and content very much like the popular Wards or Sears catalogs of the 50s. You will find the first section to be women's clothing, then men's. There are accessories, household items, childrens clothes, children's toys (how fun that is). If you are German and remember these, what a trip down memory lane for you; but if you are not German and just want to experience a look in to the world of German fashions, etc for the late fifties, then this will be of great interest and fun for you. I have certainly enjoyed looking through it after obtaining it at an antique shop. Considering that its 50 years old, this catalog is in very good condition. The pages are firmly bound and remain flat, clean and intact and it has its original inserts. The front cover at bottom has about 1 1/2 inches pulled away from being attached to the back cover, but this is not any big problem and I mention just to be thorough. I have priced it according to its rare status, as I couldn't find these on line after a pretty extensive search. It has good paper smell which is a plus in old paper items. I will try to answer any questions that would be important to you regarding this issue. I do not read or speak German, but I have a family member who might be able to help.
