Description:

Very rare, early N.S.D.A.P. membership book hand-signed by ADOLF HITLER as Chairman and by FRANZ XAVER SCHWARZ as Treasurer, 37pp. sm. 8vo., in red cloth cover (detached) with gold embossed eagle and swastika. This party membership book was issued on July 9, 1927 to teacher Julius Lutz, Party Number 16972. Lutz, borne in 1894 and from Herne, first joined the Nazi Party on August 12, 1925. The foreword is written by Hitler, and he signs where provided at the bottom of page eight. Schwarz's signature appears at right, and the local N.S.D.A.P. leader in Herne signs on the opposite page. Lutz's book shows that he paid his dues from July, 1927 until 1930 when he either left the party or received a new membership book. The book also has a good deal of propaganda printed within, including: "Count every penny you give to your Party so you will have more money to give to the Jews and the State!" Very good. Ex: Mohawk Arms. The first such signed party book we have seen in thirty years!
