Very interesting! Even though it was printed in 1909 and the German Army had adopted the Luger in 1908, the illustrations still show the "old model" 1900 Luger! I would have thought at least it would show the 1906 with the coil mainspring. I guess one year volunteer reserve officer aspirants weren't expected to be around long enough to know the difference!
Very nice acquisition Mauro. Period documents and Luger accessories are great side collections for Luger fans, and are becoming increasingly desirable (and expensive!).
