ANTI-SEMITICA / NAZI ERA - Wooden sign with inscription in German reading, “Nur für Deutche” (Only for Germans). As part of the racist culture of Germany, many defamatory laws and restrictions were enforced on the Jewish people. The Nuremberg Race Laws, Reich Citizenship Law and Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor were all manifestations of this bigotry. Signs like these were found in many public areas, permitting only Germans access to those places. In today’s age, with Holocaust denial unfortunately rampant, artifacts like these are important evidence of one of our people’s darkest hours. Fair condition, 33 by 16.5 cm.
