This is a scan of the cover of the German-language edition of the January 2013 NGM.
Note this showcases the 125th Society Anniversary much more prominently than our American edition did.
The issue features several articles about the founding, the founders, the Cosmos Club, and highlights of N.G.S. and NGM history.
I wish our edition had done the same! I also think the bold gold tone is much more effective and 'special'.
Other particulars are that this issue also features the 4 extra covers under the front cover; also, this issue still has the year-end summary w/ covers for 2012, which our American edition ceased doing with December 2010's issue. Too bad.
Unique that they wait until their January issue to 'review' the prior year. The German edition features what was our Dec. 2012 Redwoods article w/ pull-out poster. Foreign language editions of NGM frequently slide an article by a month or more, from our N. American editions.
