Original German WWII National-Socialist War Victims Care NSKOV Donation Poster - 18 ¾” × 28 ½”

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. The National Socialist War Victim's Care (Nationalsozialistische Kriegsopferversorgung or NSKOV) was a social welfare organization for seriously wounded veterans as well as frontline fighters of World War I. The NSKOV was established in 1934 and was affiliated to the NSDAP Party. The headquarters of the organization was in Kreuzberg, Berlin (at the time called the SW 68 district) and employed the architect Willy Muehlau to design cheap residential complexes for NSDAP war veterans. These complexes emerged some time between the late 1920s and early 1930s and are protected according to the City of Berlin's Denkmalliste (monument list).

This 18 ¾” × 28 ½” NSKOV Donation poster has a red field showing the NSKOV emblem, over the following text:

Kriegsopfer!
Euer frontkamerad Adolf H****r ruft zur Sammlung!
Hinein
in die National-Sozialiſtiſche  Kriegsopferverſorgung e.V.
Reichsdienſtſtelle Berlin SW 68, Charlottenstraße 85

This translates to:

War victims!
Your front line comrade Adolf H****r calls for donations!
Into
the National Socialist War Victims Care Association

Below this is the address of the office for the NSKOV. The poster was printed by August Raabe of Berlin, and we have seen several identical examples in other collections. The poster was intended to draw in donations for the NSKOV, which was always in need of funds.

Condition is good, showing a good amount of staining and period wear. It also has some wrinkles and other damage, and looks to have been on display for a good amount of time before it was put into storage.

This is a wonderful opportunity to add a genuine WW2 German NSKOV donation poster. Comes ready to display!
