- stitched with a thread with saddle stitch, just like the original
- cloth covered hardcover (matched thickness and stiffness)
- gold eagle debossed on the cover
- matched color and texture and transparency of the paper inside
It can come to you:
- blank, but with NSDAP Reichsleitung stamp and signatures of Adolf Hitler and Franz Xaver Schwarz (NSDAP Treasurer) on page 8 (they'd be there for all members), or
- the same as above, but additionally with you photo pasted on page 9 and stamped over with the same Reichsleitung rubber stamp
This book was issued from 1933-1935 and has space for 12 years of membership dues stamps, which basically makes it usable till the end of the Nazi Germany. Owner who joined NSDAP in years 1931-1934 would be most likely to have this version of the book (issued after 1 year of membership). Even members who joined earlier could have it, in case they lost their book in any way and had it reissued between 1933-35.
Before the first anniversary of joining (and often longer), members would have a membership card (check 2nd generation of available from Krause).
You can make it more complete by purchasing stamps:
- dues stamps
- donation stamps (for Party Rally - Reichsparteitag)
1933 issue book (unlike subsequent 1935) did not have space for Hilfskasse stamps. These would be pasted on a dedicated Hilfskasse Card.
Various stamps and Hilfskasse cards Available from Krause Papierwerke NSDAP collection.
