Item Description
Original Item: Only One Available. Large WWII German propaganda poster entitled, "13 Millionen Bruttoregistertonnen," The top reads:
“Thirteen Million Tons”
“That is the amount of British, or British controlled, shipping that the German navy and Luftwaffe have sunk during two years of this plutocratic war. These figures do not include shipping damaged by German mines, or other damage that cannot be proven.
During the World War, the German navy destroyed a total of 12,242,990 BRT of enemy shipping over four years.”
The Poster was issued by the "Parole der Woche," a wall newspaper (Wandzeitung) published by the National Socialist Party propaganda office in Munich. Date of this publication is September 24, 1941. The poster features a map of England encircled by German Luftwaffe planes and Kreigsmarine U-Boats. Verso: Two small stickers, one describing the issue (imprint) with date, the other advertising book by R. Ley: Durchbruch der sozialen Ehre. Reichspropagandaleitung der N.S.D.A.P.
An incredible find. WWII German propaganda posters are very hard to find. This piece is in very good condition for being 80 years old. It features creases from when it was originally folded to be mailed (during the war), some damage to the corners, and a few very small areas of water damage. Overall, the poster still exhibits strong coloration. Measures approximately: 47”x 33”
