GERMAN FORCE LABOR CAMP BATON
An old baton, hand-made from an electric cable 2 cm thick. Length 40 cm. Ended with a rubber bicycle handle. At the handle there is a leather loop to put on the hand. The strap was broken and repaired in two places. Similar clubs were made by functionary prisoners in German forced labor and concentration camps during World War II. There is no information about the origin of this stick.
