WW2 Nazi German NSDAP Third Reich 1938 Deutsche Arbeitsfront DAF Document Receipt Swastika Emblem & Official Stamp

Original 1938 Deutsche Arbeitsfront DAF Empfangs-Bestätigung Receipt – Gießen – Swastika Emblem & Official Stamp

Original Third Reich-era Deutsche Arbeitsfront (DAF – German Labour Front) “Empfangs-Bestätigung” payment receipt, dated 1938 and issued through a DAF office in Gießen, Germany.

This is a particularly attractive period administrative document because it prominently displays the DAF cogwheel and swastika emblem in the upper left corner along with the large Gothic heading “Die Deutsche Arbeitsfront – Empfangs-Bestätigung” (German Labour Front – Receipt Confirmation).

The document is individually serial numbered No. 347337 and marked “Durchschrift”, indicating a duplicate/carbon-copy record. It contains period handwritten financial entries in Reichsmarks, signatures, and an official circular DAF Dienstsiegel (service seal) featuring the cogwheel emblem. The office marking appears to read “Verw. Stelle 24 – Gießen”, providing a desirable identifiable geographic association.
