Summer 2022 Militaria Auction
Lot 702:
Huge grouping including an NSDAP membership book that is hand signed by Hitler. The membership book is also autographed in the back by a few prominent party members including Alfred Rosenberg and Robert Ley. These items belonged to a woman named Martha Herrscher who joined the party very early on July 13, 1925 and was assigned the membership number 10,192. She was a secretary at the Reichsfuhrer school in Bernau and was personally acquainted with most of the 3Reich personalities. She would later marry Johann Vogel who was a Kreisleiter in Amberg. The grouping comes with many of Frau Herrscher’s personal documents, membership and event passes including her delegate card from the 1929 Nuremberg Reichsparteitag rally. There are also some extremely early private photos of party rallies from the 1920’s showing AH, J. Streicher and J. Goebbels.Very few of the Hitler signed party membership books are known to exist. When they do surface they’re always early examples from the 1920’s. It’s thought he would only hand sign the books of close friends and very prominent party members.
