EA. Imhof 538, Perret 3962, Yakushi S 78 a, nicht bei AC Libr.Cat. Am 9. Juni 1957 ersteigen im Rahmen der von Marcus Schmuck geleiteten "Österreichischen Karakorum-Expedition 1957", dieser, Fritz Wintersteller, Kurt Diemberger und Hermann Buhl erstmals den Broad Peak (8047 m), ohne Hochträger und ohne Einsatz von Sauerstoffgeräten; kurz darauf verunglückt Hermann Buhl an der Chogolisa tödlich (27. Juni 1957, Absturz durch Wächtenbruch). In der 1. Hälfte des Buches schildert Marcus Schmuck (1925-2005) seine ersten alpinen "Gehversuche" in seiner Bergheimat (Steinernes Meer), Kletterfahrten - häufig mit seinem Seilpartner Hermann Buhl - in den Ost- und Westalpen, Bergfahrten im Hohen Atlas (Marokko) und auf Spitzbergen.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition. 8vo. pp. 360, [v, Contents]; text in German; photo. illusts. inc. some folding; a near-fine copy in the original buff cloth, in the original d.j., which is slightly frayed to extremities. Signed by the author, expedition members Fritz Wintersteller and Kurt Diemberger, Eugenie "Generl" Buhl (Hermann's widow), and the Pakistani liaison officer for the expedition, Qader Saeed, and with a loosely inserted expedition postcard dated "Basislager 12.6.57" signed by all four members of the team including Hermann Buhl (one postage stamp missing, hole-punched and now laminated). This, the official account of the first ascent of Broad Peak by Hermann Buhl, Schmuck, Kurt Diemberger and Fritz Wintersteller, has become very scarce. Schmuck relates not only the ascent of Broad Peak, but also Buhl's death on Chogolisa. No English edition was ever published, though Diemberger has signed the book and added "Please compare with SUMMITS & SECRETS" (which contains sections on the expedition, and was for long the only source by an expedition member available in English). The expedition postcard with this copy is one of very few sent back from the expedition; written by Wintersteller from base camp three days after the successful ascent of Broad Peak, it is addressed to Dr. Seefeldner of the Committee of the Österreichische Alpenverein (ÖAV) Sektion Salzburg, and reports simply that on the 9th June the expedition successfully reached the summit of Broad Peak. Signed by Wintersteller, the card is additionally signed by Schmuck, Diemberger and Hermann Buhl. Richard Sale's copy, with his signed bookplate.
