WWII German Propaganda Poster – 1941 NSDAP “Wochenspruch” (Weekly Motto) Propaganda Poster

Description

Original 1941 NSDAP “Wochenspruch” (Weekly Motto) Propaganda Poster. This original German propaganda poster features a bold black-and-white typographic design topped by the Nazi Party eagle and swastika emblem. The text presents a slogan emphasizing sacrifice and collective effort as the foundation of the German Reich, reflecting one of the central themes of Nazi wartime propaganda. Issued as part of the “Wochenspruch der NSDAP” series by the Reich Propaganda Directorate, the poster is Issue 11, covering 16–22 March 1941, and was published by the Zentralverlag der NSDAP, Munich, the official publishing house of the Nazi Party. The poster retains its original margins and publication details, with light age toning and minor foxing consistent with its age. As an authentic wartime artifact, it represents an example of the printed propaganda used to encourage public support, unity, and sacrifice in Germany during the Second World War.
