Default Expanded my Luger library

Someone on Ebay was selling a few Luger books and magazines and it seemed like a decent way to get some more good background material. Any comments on these, which are good/bad, etc?

From left to right -
  • Monograph II (The German Military Pistols 1904-1930) by Fred A. Datig, copyright 1990
  • Luger Tips (Revised Edition) by Michael Reese II, revised 1992
  • March 1967 issue of Guns & Ammo magazine



Left to right -
  • The Luger Pistol (Enlarged Revised Edition) by Fred A. Datig, copyright 1962
  • The Luger Story by John Walter, copyright 2001
  • 1900 Luger U.S. Test Trials by Michael Reese II, copyright 1976



I do have a question about the Datig book, which appears identical print-wise to the one I already had (shown on the right) other than the dust cover and the thickness of the pages, which are thinner in the version on the left. Does anyone know the story of the dust jackets?
