1942 INVITATION FROM
NAZI EDUCATION
MINISTER
DR. BERNHARD RUST
This is an original Third Reich, official invitation from Reichsminister für Wissenschaft, Erziehung und Volksbildung (Minister of Science, Education and National Culture ) Dr. Bernhard Rust for a reception in Hotel Bellevue in Dresden, following the European Meeting of Students and Frontline Soldiers on Friday 17 April 1942. The invitation measures 5-7/8 x 8-1/4 inch and has an embossed Hoheitszeichen (Nazi eagle and swastika) at the top. The recipient wrote a letter on the back of the invitation on 11 May 1942, mentioning Dr. Bernhard Rust and the reception.
Nazi uniform
1942 Uniform-Bezeugschein
THIRD REICH
PERMITS
FOR THE
ACQUISITION
OF NAZI
MILITARY
UNIFORM
PARTS
In the German Army ordinary Landsers were typically issued clothing and uniforms in approximately the correct size upon enlistment. Soldiers who could afford or were entitled to it could request issue of parts of uniforms which could then be built into custom made uniforms by a tailor.

The two Uniform-Bezugscheine (priority vouchers) signed by a Wehrmacht Major and the Detachment Commander allowed one Franz Musil of the Fahr-Ersatz-Abteilung 17 to acquire eine Lange Tuchhose (one pair of long pants) and drei Kragenbinden (three uniform collars closures).
Because parts for uniforms once issued became part of the uniform itself, there was little reason to save a Uniform-Bezugschein. They are therefor rare pieces of German military paperwork, absolutely orignal to the Third Reich period and in very good condition. $40.00 delivered worldwide.
Nazi culture Ottokar
1938 NAZI SLIDE SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT -
DR. OTTOKAR KERNSTOCK
Dr. Ottokar Kernstock was a well-known priest, poet and patriot. He composed the Kaiserlied which became the Austrian national hymn in 1929/30 as well as the Swastika Song for Ortsgruppe Fürstenfeld, heavily used by National Socialists eventhough Kernstock died in November 1928.
This 4-1/8 x 5-7/8 inch one sided card was the announcement and invitation to a slide show held at the Arania Hall in Vienna on 14 April 1938 at 7:30 pm (a few days after the Anschluß, the reunification of Austria with Nazi Germany). The evening focussed on Dr. Ottokar Kernstock and his work. This card was supposed to be passed on, copied and displayed to publicize this evening for Volksdeutschen.
Very good condition. **SOLD**.
Reichsbahnzentrale für den Deutschen Reiseverkehr
RDV
NAZI RAILWAY TRAVEL CORRESPONDENCE

FOOT AND BODY POWDER AUSWEIS COVER
This is quite an unusual piece - a 4-5/8 x 7-1/4 inch cover for a Nazi Soldbuch or Wehrpass which has the front cover printed with a full-color advertisement for Hofer’s Hautpulver - Foot and Body Powder!
Dr. Bernhard Rust
Dr. Bernard Rust fought in World War I and became a member of the Nazi Party in 1922. In 1925 he was appointed Gauleiter of Hanover-Braunschweig and in 1930 he was elected to the Reichstag. When Hitler was elected Reichschancellor in 1933 he appointed Rust as the Prussian Minister for Cultural Affairs and on 1 June 1934 he was appointed Nazi Minister of Science, Education and National Culture. It was Dr. Rust who issued a rule that students and teachers should greet each other with the Nazi salute and that it was expected of every German, regardless of membership in the NSDAP. Rust was also instrumental in purging German universities and schools of Jews and other enemies of the State.

Very good condition, and absolutely original to the Third Reich period. Offered for sale for $130.00 delivered to any address worldwide.
