Rather uncommon item for Ostalgie collectors of GDR miniature books. Ostalgie is a German term referring to nostalgia for aspects of life in East Germany. It is derived from the German words Ost (east) and Nostalgie (nostalgia).

The term Ostalgie (along with the phrase 'Soviet chic') is also occasionally used to refer to nostalgia for life under the socialist system in other former communist countries of Eastern Europe, most notably Poland and the Soviet Union.
