Welcome to the Third-Reich-Posters website where you will find an unrivalled selection of hard to find items.

The name is historical and goes back to when we solely sold posters relating to the Third Reich Era.

We have since developed way beyond this due to the expectations, needs and requests from our varied and worldwide customer base. The price of original period pieces is prohibitively expensive and the requirements for careful storage of them often mean they are unable to be displayed and that is where we are able to help with faithful reproductions or period pieces.

Our customer base includes, museums, military establishments, veterans, T.V prop departments, university libraries and private collectors who are looking for some extra context to add to their collection.

Our wide range of translated books gives the reader an insight into how and why the Third Reich was established and why things happened as they did.

Why do we sell Third Reich related items ? Well one major factor is that their is less competition. As sites such as Amazon and E Bay have banned such items from sale it has not lessened the demand for them and indeed it can be said by banning them they have made them more desirable and have created a larger cross section of interest in this specialist niche in the marketplace. The inability to purchase on these platforms has meant that people and institutions now come to us for these items. None of these items are intended, and nor do, they incite any form  of "hate" , "intolerance" or "violence". They are meant for academic and historical  study and if abused then that is due to the interpretation of the individual not the contents of the book. If you want to blame books and ban them from sale  then you had better start by banning the Tora, Koran and Bible all of whom have passages which could be said to incite hatred, misogyny, or intolerance in one form or another.

We do offer for sale a selection of Allied posters but as these are readily available elsewhere we do not see much demand for them, but we do still offer them for sale in the interests of diversity of opinion and balance. We did however have to stop selling the Churchill busts as in 5 years we sold 1 compared to over 100 comparable sized busts of Adolf Hitler, we do not stock what people do not wish to purchase.

We advance no political agenda other than freedom of thought and expression. If you dislike what we sell then feel free to take your business and political ideology, whether Red or Brown, elsewhere.

The history of, and leading up to, WW2 is forever and can not be denied. It is not yours, or ours, to erase, rewrite, tear down or deny !

The society we have today is the child of the past and it is what it is so act accordingly.

Allach style ? Ceramic plate /humidifier

£450.00

Description

Our Patreon subscribers will have heard the full story of how we came across this plate/bowl/radiator-humidifier.

Given as a fundraising gift from the grandson of one of the domestic staff at RFSS Himmler’s former home in Gmund when we were celebrating the 125th birthday of RFSS Himmler

Margerete and Gudrun fled the home and headed to Innsbruck en route to North Tyrol to evade the oncoming invading American army.

The remaining domestic staff were mostly elderly since the younger members of staff had been enlisted whilst the SS-Begleitkommando des Reichsführers-SS guard contingent had long since departed to join fighting units as it was thought a mother and child would draw less attention than people with an escort. Margerete and Gudrun joined a small group of other wives and children of S.S. men and travelled with false papers.

The members of staff “liberated” small pieces of furniture as cherished keepsakes;  as well as emptying the larders of the little foodstuffs left in the villa.

It has the look and style of a piece of Allach porcelain but it has no maker’s mark.  The grandson had no idea what it was other than it had been in a trunk in storage in  the basement of the grandmother.

It serves no obvious culinary purpose so it is either decorative or was used on a traditional Kachelofen radiator which was traditionally  popular in Bavaria.

We believe it was used as a Kachelofen humidifier. The principle being you fill them with water and place it on top of the radiator, and the process of evaporation helped humidify the dry air and prevent dry skin and throats creating a more healthy environment.

It has the Reich Eagle and swastika in the foreground mounted on a “sunwheel” motif which was the Divisional insignia of the 5th SS Wiking Division. Is it co-incidence that SS Officer Cadet training school Bad Tolz is just 15km from the Himmler house ?  It is known that some of the  best  Officer Cadets, Lehrgangsbester,in each year did on graduation visit Lindenfycht villa to meet RFSS Himmler and “have tea” when he was in the area. Was this a presentation piece for one of these young men to the RFSS ?

It has a diameter of 20cm and is 4cm deep.  The water filling holes (we think thats what they are) at the rear are situated at the 3 and 9 oclock position.
