Of obviously lesser importance is the first sentence of this piece's description: "This is one of the most rare of all the pre-WWII German awards..." Reichsgau Wartheland was, in fact, created by the occurrence of World War II; as described by Wikipedia -- "Militärbezirk Posen was created in September 1939 and as Reichsgau Posen annexed by Germany on 8 October 1939, with SS Obergruppenfuhrer Arthur Greiser as the only Gauleiter. The name Reichsgau Wartheland was introduced on 29 January 1940."
