    NSDAP poster on Collector's Guild:

    I saw this interesting poster on Collectors Guild:

    http://www.germanmilitaria.com/Polit...s/N008873.html

    I wonder what the community's thoughts are on it?
    Anybody seen one like this before?

    it reads:
    "Das Banner muss stehn wenn der Mann auch fallt"

    How might it best be translated?

    Something like, "The banner must stand even when the man falls"?

    Saw the same one the other day. Found it pretty interesting but am never sure of paper items.

      'The banner must stand even if the man falls' would be my interpretation.
      There were literally hundreds of these Wochenspruch designs.

        these are NOT posters and so do not command poster prices

        pretty typical...REMEMBER these are not posters!
        smaller flyers is what they are...and not typical Nazi era THIN poster paper either...they enjoy a better grade grade thickness.
        So...NOT A POSTER IN THE NORMAL SENSE!

        I have always suspected sellers of conflating these flyers to posters to raise prices.
        Thus ,let us stop any glide towards higher prices ALA as actual posters price commands.

        and as Erich B. alluded to, there were a legion of these "{weekly spoken}-word" flyers.

        I know cause I have a small grouping of the ones I have an ideological interest in.

        Finally :
        I concur with initial poster that this "is interesting." As one may notice there seems to be a willingness to go further go out on a limb (if that is possible) than other mouth pieces of NS propraganda

          Hi,

          I have 20+ of these "Wochenspruch" items.
          They are quite small, so cannot be classified as posters.
          They were issued weekly by the NSDAP., and were small items exhorting the German population to produce more for the war effort.
          Before 1937, these items were of a geographical nature, so many variations exist.
          Things became centralized after 1937, so all "Wochensproch" passed the same message.
