WW2 Nazi German Third Reich Danzig Swastika Eagle WHW Propaganda Postcard

Original 1934 Nazi Germany Danzig ist Deutsch Propaganda Postcard Swastika

Description:

Original 1934 Third Reich German propaganda postcard featuring a striking color illustration of Danzig (Gdańsk) beneath a large German eagle and swastika emblem.

The prominent slogan reads:

“DANZIG IST DEUTSCH”
Translation: “Danzig is German.”

The design reflects the intense German nationalist and territorial propaganda surrounding the Free City of Danzig during the interwar period. Danzig had been separated from Germany following World War I and placed under League of Nations protection, while remaining overwhelmingly German-speaking. The status of Danzig subsequently became a major political issue in German-Polish relations and Nazi propaganda.

The cityscape appears to prominently feature St. Mary’s Church (Marienkirche) and the historic Danzig skyline. The bold red coloration, monumental eagle and swastika make this an especially graphic period propaganda piece.

Condition: Very attractive original period condition with strong color and sharp graphics. Reverse has a pre printed WHW stamp. Please examine all photographs for exact condition.

Historical Interest:

A strong example of prewar Danzig territorial propaganda, combining German nationalist imagery, the historic Danzig cityscape, Nazi eagle and swastika symbolism, the explicit “Danzig ist Deutsch” slogan, and a contemporary 1934 handwritten message.
