Giant Steps, Jul-Dec 1980

The publication series comprises the bulk of the collection. It contains items such as What You Should Know About the Giant Schnauzer which is comprehensive in nature; it’s a great source for its history, care, exhibition, and breeding among other topics. The GSCA’s official publication Giant Steps makes up the bulk of the series. It begins with the first Giant Steps published in 1962 and continues until 2009. Each contains ubiquitous items found in a parent club publication such as event results, articles, meeting minutes, photos and other information. The club’s Yearbooks are also a valuable source, which spans from 1976 to 2001 and 2007. Interestingly, this series also contains a sizeable amount of foreign items such as the German Stud Books and Germanic books.
