Original Third Reich propaganda postcard issued for the Volksdeutsches Kameradschaftsopfer der deutschen Jugend campaign in January 1942.
The front features a striking portrait by renowned military artist Wolfgang Willrich, depicting a German officer wearing the Knight’s Cross of the Iron Cross (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes). The simple profile composition highlights one of Germany’s highest military decorations and exemplifies Willrich’s distinctive style.
The reverse bears the official VDA campaign inscription and publisher’s details. This example remains unused, making it an attractive collector’s piece.
