Lot 725:
Outstanding 100% original anti-Semitic "Juden unerwünscht" enameled metal sign used to dissuade the Jews from entering places during the Third Reich. This metal sign is large and heavy and the enamel is almost all intact. Minor damage to the edges, and shows a Swastika and the phrase "Juden unerwünscht" (Jews unwelcome). Metal plaques and signs like this one and many other variations could be found all over the Third Reich banning the entrance of the Jews to shops and other public places. It was a powerful anti-Semitic tool used during the Third Reich period against the Jews. These plaques are very rare to find since most of them were destroyed after the end of the war. Exact same example is shown in the book "A Glimpse of Evil". Size 11 3/4 inch length 4 inches width. Excellent museum piece!
