Preis-Verzeichniss der in der österreichisch-ungarischen Monarchie und im Auslande erscheinenden Zeitungen und periodischen Druckschriften für das Jahr ...

This volume served as an official price list and catalog for newspapers and periodical publications circulating within the Austro-Hungarian Empire and abroad. Produced annually by the imperial postal administration, it functioned as a vital logistical tool for postal officials, booksellers, and library administrators, ensuring that subscriptions and distribution were standardized across the complex, multi-lingual territories of the Habsburg monarchy.

The publication reflected the rigorous bureaucratic precision of the late 19th and early 20th-century Austrian state. Its design focused on functional clarity, categorizing thousands of titles by region, language, and frequency of issue to facilitate efficient trade and communication. As a reflection of the era's expansive media landscape, these catalogs are now valued by historians as essential records of the rise and reach of the periodic press before the collapse of the dual monarchy.
