WW2 Third Reich Nazi German Postcard Stey Siblings Child Acrobats Circus Performers

Original Third Reich era German postcard featuring the Geschwister Stey, a sibling acrobatic performance troupe.

The front presents a photographic montage showing the young performers executing several impressive balancing and acrobatic routines, including hand-to-hand balancing and a multi-person vertical balance. The German caption reads:

“Die kleinsten Akrobaten der Welt – Geschwister STEY”

Translation:

“The smallest acrobats in the world – Stey Siblings.”

An unusual piece of early German circus, variety theater and entertainment history, particularly interesting for collectors of historical performers and acrobatic acts.

The reverse is unused and retains its original postcard address lines. Publisher/printer information is printed along the lower portion of the reverse.

Good original condition with age-related handling wear, light toning, corner/edge wear and some surface marks/creasing visible in the photographs. Please see photos for exact condition.

A fascinating and unusual period postcard depicting a professional European family acrobatic act.
