It was an expensively produced booklet with modern graphics created by Walter Tiemann. Not only were major authors published in the magazine, but also unknown and first-published authors.

The first eight prose works of Franz Kafka appeared in the magazine: The Trees (Die Bäume), Clothes (Kleider), The Rejection (Die Abweisung), The Businessman (Der Kaufmann), Absent-minded Window-gazing (Zerstreutes Hinausschaun), The Way Home (Der Nachhauseweg), Passers-by (Die Vorüberlaufenden) and On the Tram (Der Fahrgast).[1]
