1934 Reich party rally of the NSDAP in Nuremberg, Knight with a swastika shield

Germany / Third Reich (1933-1945)

Several post cards were published to celebrate the 6,h Party Rally. The above could be termed the semi-official card issued by the Party. It depicts a mythical NSDAP knight with a swastika shield. It was produced by Verlag Frz. Eher, Munich 2 from a copperplate by Brend’amour, Simhart & Co., Munich. Rally post card franked with Scott 442 mailed 9 September 1934 at Postamt Nurnberg 2. This slogan cancel was used in three separate machines in the main post office. The single circle ,,Zwei-Sterne“-Datumstemple (two star date stamp) is known in two distinct types. In Type “b” above, the figure “2” has a straight foot. This is believed to indicate that two different dies were in simultaneous use or that the “2” in the original die was at some stage replaced with a new figure of slightly different pattern.

Condition: Used.
