Original WWII U.S. Anti-Axis "Hotzi Notzi" Propaganda Pin Cushion - Homefront- November 17, 1941 Patent Date

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. Scarce WWII U.S. home front Anti Axis Pin Cushion. Patent Dated on the base 11-17-41 (November 17, 1941) interestingly less than a month before America’s entry into World War Two. This item just goes to show the anti-German sentiment that existed before December 7th, 1941.
 
These are scarce items today simply because they were not very well made to begin with. Cast from plaster, with an applied cotton bound batting-filled pin cushion. The figurine is hand painted, with most of the original paint still present.
 
These originally came with a paper tag tied around the neck (tag for this example is missing) which read:
 
Hotzi Notzi
Its good luck to find a pin
Here’s an “Axis” to stock it in
 
And the reverse:
 
He who seeks to stick others-
Himself gets stuck in the end.
 
A great item to add to a WWII collection! Certainly a conversation piece in its own right. These are getting harder and harder to find every year.
