De Prins der Geillustreerde Bladen ('The Prince of Illustrated Magazines') was a periodical published since 1908 and known as De Prins. It contained many photographs as well as celebrity obituaries and follow-up stories.[1]

Each week, Victor Kugler brought newspapers and magazines for the people in hiding, including De Prins.[2] Anne Frank thought about sending one of her stories to De Prins under a pseudonym.[3] Anne pasted two pictures from De Prins on the wall of her room in the Secret Annex: a self-portrait of Leonardo da Vinci and an image of a statue of Paracelsus.
