Original Item. Only One Available. The NSDAP, or Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (National Socialist German Worker’s Party), was originally founded in Munich as the DAP, or Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (German Worker’s Party), on January 5 1919. When Adolf joined the DAP in the autumn of 1919 he was to reform what was basically a debating society into an active political party. Appointed as the first chairman of the party on July 29TH 1921 he was to restructure it along para-military lines in a hierarchy of four levels of government.

During the next decade, the NSDAP gradually grew in power, and on January 30, 1933 Reichspräsident Paul von Hindenburg appointed Adolf H as Reichskanzler (Chancellor of Germany), after which he quickly consolidated power to become a true dictator. January 30th would later become a national holiday called "Empowerment Day", and Adolf H would gave several annual addresses to the Reichstag on that day. These occurred in 1937 and 1939, and were called the Reichstagsreden (Reichstag Speeches), which detailed his plans for the future of the Third Reich. After 1939 these annual speeches took place in the larger Berlin Sportpalast until 1942. when they ceased until 1945, when the last speech was radio broadcast from the Reichskanzlei.

What we have here is a fantastic item the likes of which we have not had previously! This is a period 9cm (3.54in.) by 14cm (5.51in.) photograph postcard showing Der Führer Adolf H surrounded by members of the Sturmabteilung, a well-known photo circa 1934 that was featured in multiple NSDAP photobooks. It bears his signature at the bottom in blue ink.

We have examined the postcard thoroughly, and the color, type of paper used, and the type of photographic process used, which produces a metallic sheen in areas, are indisputably correct for the WWII Period. It is definitely a professionally printed postcard, and the reverse is marked with Nachdruck verboten (reproduction prohibited). We have also examined the signature on the front of the post card, and it is a definite match for that of Der Führer Adolf H, which is well-known and easily researchable. It was definitely made using ink from a fountain pen, and we can see the individual strokes as well as variations in the amount of ink used, which would not be produced by any type of autopen device.  We see no reason to doubt that this signature is 100% correct and authentic.

This is an item the likes of which we are very unlikely to see again in the future. A truly unique signed and dated period photograph of Der Führer of the so-called "Third Reich", ready to research and display!
