Der Giftpilz, ein Stürmerbuch für Jung u. Alt [The poisonous mushroom, a book for children and adults]. Nuremberg: Der Stürmer, 1938. German.

The book, written by Ernst Hiemer, an author and journalist in "Der Stürmer", portrays Jews as "poisonous mushrooms".

The book is accompanied by colorful illustrations by the caricaturist of "Der Stürmer" Philipp Rupprecht who published his works under the pen-name "Fips".
