NAZI CHINESE IDENTITY DOCUMENT TIENTSIN 1938

AN EXTREMELY RARE NAZI /
CHINESE AUSWEIS ISSUED
AT TIENTSIN, CHINA IN 1938

This may be the only remaining example of a commercial Ausweiskarte or identity document issued by the Deutsches Generalkonsulat or German General Consul at Tientsin, a Japanese occupied city on the banks of the Peihao River in China.

This extremely rare, four-panel document measures about 4-1/4 x 6 inches (folds to 3 x 4-1/4 inches). The front panel bears an eagle and swastika above a triangular Nazi banner in red, black and white. The words DEUTSCHES GENERALKONSULAT TIENTSIN AUSWEISKARTE appear in German and Chinese beneath the document number 00114.

The red stamp in a box on three of the four panels confirms that Gerhard Neelmeier was identified and registered at the Japanese Consulate.

The two inside panels identify and show Neelmeier, a salesman residing at 111 Woodrow Wilson Street in Tientsin, and the ID is dated 23 December 1938. The information typed on a Japanese typewriter under Neelmeier's picture is the same information shown in German on the page facing the picture.

A blank space at the bottom of panel 2 bears the consular stamp and the photo of Gerhard Neelmeier on panel 3 is impressed with the consular seal.

Panel 4 of this Nazi ID bears the same red Japanese consular stamp that appears on panel 1 and panel 3.

An exceptionally rare Nazi Ausweis in very good original condition.
