        No expert in the Czech language but I my translation of the front cover Vlasti Zdar National Socialist means literally:
        For the well being of the nation: National Socialism
        That would fit with this document being from the Protectorate of Bohemia & Moravia (indicated by references to Prague).

        My dictionary translate the Clensky Prukaz as Membership Card the first signature I translate as General Secretary the second Head something
        On the inside right Clensky prispevek zaplacen na rok translates as:
        member contribution paid for the year

        The quote on the rear is from Dr E Hacha who was Emil Hacha - President of the Protectorate from 1939 until the Russions got him in 45.

        So my educated guess is that you've got a Membership card to a member of the fascist National Solidarity (N.S.) movement which was based in Bohemia Moravia

        hope this helps
        regards

          Thank You! I had no idea what I had. I bought the card based on the name "Dr E Hacha" being on the back. I appreciate the help!

            Hi

            "NS" means "Narodni Sourucenstvi" ("S" not "socialismus"). Translation word "Sourucenstvi" = something like "community - partnership".
            NS (1939-45) was initially kvasipolitical party in Protectorate BuM (Jews were forbidden membership) for defending the interests of the Czech. Later typical collaborat. party with nazis - loyal cooperation with the 3 Reich.
            In 1943 NS was destroyed as a political organization and transformed in the corporation "with tasks mainly cultural and educational".
