lot # 667 - numismatic means of payment

Thursday Nov 21, 2019 23:45 Asia/Jerusalem

Nazi party advertising 1932 election propaganda 'leaflet' created by printing a Jewish caricature and anti-semitic message on a genuine 1000 Reichsmark bill from the German 1923 high-Inflation period -- the bill reminding the people of the extremely hard times they went through, and the caricature places the blame. This was printed on a used bill, so is pretty worn, as per scan, starting to separate along the fold in center. "Das Gold, das Silber, und den Speck nahm uns Jud, un liese uns disen Dreck...Kommt zu Hitler, werdet Nationalsozialisten" -- "The Jew takes our Gold, Silver and Bacon and leaves us this crap...Come to Hitler, become a National Socialist." Even beyond the nuttiness of the general sentiment -- the jews are taking the *bacon*? (The term 'Speck' can be used for ham, prosciutto, or bacon, but it's still pork!)
