Description: Comes with hand-signed C.O.A.This original WWII German propaganda leaflet was dropped by German onto American positions during the early month of the European Theater invasion of Normandy, France. This leaflet is an original and US veteran bring back of one of the most famous WWII German propaganda leaflet of World War II produced by German Psychological Warfare Units. The thrust of the propaganda contained in the leaflets aimed at American fighting men was to take him out of combat - get him to surrender, defect, or end up in a hospital, so he wasn’t fighting Germans. The German used delivery systems similar to those used by the Americans. Propaganda leaflets were rolled up in artillery shells and exploded over American positions, they were dropped by aircraft, and they were simply left where Americans would find them. This German Psychological Warfare propaganda leaflet is an ORIGINAL and was picked up on battlefields in Europe during World War II by an American GI.This famous and very rare print example uses the image of a young boy on the front to encourage fathers to come home. The back warns soldiers that they may never make it home to their wives, sweethearts, mothers, children and all that they will be able to give them will be unbearable grief.This would make an amazing addition to any WWII collection!
