"Remember what Amalek Did to You" - Booklet - Anti-Nazi Caricatures - Paris, 1933
Remember what Amalek did to you [Hebrew] / Israël souviens toi! / Think of it, Israel! / Israel denke dran! Paris: E. Varlin Edition, [ca. 1933].
The booklet that came out bravely has to say, harsh cartoons aimed at Hitler and the Nazi rule by Jewish-Swiss artist Varlin Willy Guggenheim. The booklet was published in the year of Hitler's rise to power and in effect attacks the Aryan race in the way he uses himself against other races. The booklet presents the 'ancestors' of the Aryan Germans in the form of jungle animals, compared to the ancestors of the Jewish race as victorious Pharaoh in Egypt. Further cartoons mocking Germany's failure in World War I, and Nazi racial theory. In one of the cartoons, in order to illustrate the extremes of Nazi ideology, Willy painted Hitler in a zoo next to camels and his adage: "They look too Jewish, they will have to be replaced by Aryan animals!", Also appear cartoons depicting Nazi laws against Jews and Nazi tyranny that began to spread just in the months when the booklet was published, as well as cartoons condemning Goebbels and Gring. Rare.
The cartoons are accompanied by titles in Yiddish, English, French and German.
[34] pages, 27 cm. Stains. Slight tears at cover. Good condition.
