Can anyone direct me to or know where I can order or buy (in the US) the original German version of Rav Hirsch's commentary on the Torah?

One can order through the Amazon Site a reprint made by Forgotten books:
Perhaps, it will be even cheaper to contact the Forgotten Books site directly. Forgotten books can also produce a premium hardcover for you and electronic version.
If you seek to buy original German editions, they also sometimes appear as separate volumes on Amazon. A good resource is the book search engine Bookfinder which has info from many antiquarian book stores in Europe and US.

@NoachMiFrankfurt thank you for the tip. It is really helpful to read Wikipedia articles on Fraktur font en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraktur and on Antiqua font en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiqua_(typeface_class)– Y DJCommented Oct 9 at 16:57
