Tribunal verdict issued by the city of Dachau. With original price list from February 1941 of the PMA, Dachau factory (good condition) and a product directory for 1938/39 (incomplete, damaged). Also 24 photos from H. Schaale's family and private environment. They depict some of the objects offered for sale at this auction, such as the Hessian farmer couple.
The factory was founded in 1936. It produced high quality porcelain after models by noted designers such as Theodor Kärner, Karl Diebitsch, Franz Nagy, Adolf Röhring and other artists. The buildings 52 and 53 located on the compound of the SS camp in Dachau housed the Allach production facilities. A unique opportunity to purchase yet unpublished picture material of the SS factory from the possession of H. Schaale."
