An unsere Freunde, die Deutschen! [To our friends, the Germans!], a printed leaflet – letter from Dutch citizens calling to maintain peace and democracy and to protect the Jews in Germany. Signed in print: Viele Parteilose, nichtjüdische Holländer [Many politically unaffiliated, non-Jewish Dutch]. [Amsterdam, 1939]. German.
At the beginning of the letter, which was written following the Kristallnacht, the writers note that it was sent to ten thousand randomly chosen addresses in Germany. Through excerpts from conservative Dutch newspapers, which condemn Germany's attitude to its Jews, the writers try to convince the receivers of the letter that in its attitude to its Jews, Germany is acting in a barbaric, shameful manner.
Enclosed: the original envelope in which this leaflet was sent to Berlin. On the envelope, a postmark from Amsterdam, 1939.
[1] f., printed on both sides. 33 cm. Good condition. Some small tears to edges. Envelope in good condition.
