1933 Reich party rally of the NSDAP in Nuremberg, Used
Lot 268
Siegmar von Suchodolski was the designer of this official NSDAP souvenir post card posted in Nurnberg on 3 September 1933. Brend’amour, Simhart & Company of Munich did the copper engraved printing, and the card was copyrighted by Franz Eher Verlag of Munich
At dawn on the last morning of the rally, members of the SA gathered for their final demonstration. Many of the groups met at their rendezvous as early as 3:00 AM. Shortly before 8:00 AM, the parade began to move toward the Luitpold Arena for the roll call and the traditional consecration of the banners. The ceremonial atmosphere reached its climax when, at 8:00 AM, all the church bells of Nurnberg began to ring.
By 10:00 AM, when Hitler arrived, the formations had assumed their positions. In the center of the field were 15,000 party flags; they seemed to dwarf the thirty-five flags of the visiting nations. Attendance was estimated at 150,000.
Two different publicity cancellations were installed in machines in three of the city’s post offices. The “3 star” cancellation on this official NSDAP souvenir card mailed 3 September 1933 was applied in Niirnberg 2, the main Postamt at 4-6 Bahnhofstrasse.
Later in the afternoon, the scene shifted to the town square for the march past. Reviewing stands had been erected to accommodate 10,000 spectators. A special section was reserved for the 100 oldest party members and the families of the 240 men who had been killed in the struggle for power. Standing in his car, Hitler reviewed the parade. Beside him was Ernst Rohm, the chief of staff of the SA.
Three bands took turns accompanying the marchers; the houses surrounding the square were decorated with flowers and garlands, and spectators filled every window.
Two hours later, Hitler closed the rally with a speech in which he once again expounded his theory of racial leadership.
