1932 Poster

From the July 1932 Reichstag election. The top part of the poster is missing. The remainder translates: “Bolshevism. It has raised its fist, dripping with the blood of German men. Now it wants to strike again, destroying everything and eliminating every form of order. Stop! That is what we demand! The Bolshevist beast has lived only from murder in recent weeks. Everywhere, blood marks their fearsome path. Altona [a suburb of Hamburg]! 16 dead! Including two defenseless women! German people! Enough is enough! Put an end to the bloodshed! Give power to Hitler! That will make a quick end of Bolshevism! Men and women! Free Germany from this red plague! Vote National Socialist. List 2. Courtesy of the University of Minnesota Library.
