Description

Here is your chance to pick up a wonderful tinnie for the Nationalsozialistische Volkswohlfahrt. This example likely relates to a fundraiser for mothers and children through the NSV. Produced in brass. I like pieces like this because not only are they extremely affordable but each one is it’s own little work of art in a sense.The National Socialist People’s Welfare was a social welfare organization during the Third Reich. The NSV was established in 1931 as a local welfare organization and on 3 May 1933, shortly after the Nazi Party took power, Hitler turned it into a party organization of the NSDAP. With 17 million Germans receiving assistance under the auspices of NSV by 1939, the agency “projected a powerful image of caring and support”. The NSV operated 8,000 day-nurseries by 1939 and funded holiday homes for mothers, distributed additional food for large families and was involved with a wide variety of other facilities. The organization was the second largest Nazi group by 1935, second only to the German Labour Front. It had 4.7 million members and 520,000 volunteer workers. Nazi Party members who were active in communal welfare professionally or as volunteers had to be NSV members.
