Description

Nazi propaganda poster: “Ein weitblickender Englander sah im Jahre 1909 … die Entwicklung der Vereinigten Staaten voraus, als er diese Zeichnung veroffentlichte … Juden und Juden genossen sind die wahren herren in USA. … Mit der Herrschaft des Judentems wird Schluss gemacht!”

summary

Reproduces a 1909 drawing labeled,”History of the United States,” showing a Native American Indian being pushed off a cliff by Uncle Sam, who is in turn supplanted by a Jew. The poster declares that the Jews are the true masters in the United States, and pledges to fight until the Jews are overcome: “They have driven the American people into war to take over Europe and to rule rest of the world. We will defend ourselves against them! We will not lay down our weapons until we get rid of the Jews and destroy their influence completely. We will put an end to the reign of the Jews!”
Linen-backed. 33 x 41.5 inches.
