It is of interest to note that this private post card is cancelled 12 August 1936 and was postallv used. Apparently, the photo of Hitler and Goring was taken early during the Games (which began 1 August 1936) and the card was rushed into production and distribution very quickly so that it could be sold to spectators and tourists before the Games ended on 16 August 1936.
