There is a new book out that deals with "Amts-, Behörden- und Dienstellenschilder".
I got my copy yesterday and all I can say is that is a most fantastic reference work.

Wall Plaques and Official Office Signboards of Hitler´s Third Reich 1933-1945
This book fills a long-awaited need for a reference on wall plaques and sign boards. Nothing has been written before on this Third Reich Topic. Advertising and business wall plaques have been covered in appropriate reference books. Collectors of Third Reich signs and wall plaques have not had this luxery, even though there was a plethora of signs used during this period. This book uses many colored photographs to discuss and dispict the actual usage, not only of National Socialist political and state organizations wall plaques from the years 1933-1945, but also street name plates and newspaper plaques. This reference book in no way condones the actions of the Third Reich, but is to be used to both study the history of this time period and to aid collectors and historians from all over the world to identify and c wall plaques in their collections.
460 pages, over 960 photos and illustrations mostly in color, large format, hardcover, in English
