A propos de cet article

280 X 455mm., and 320 X 450mm., respectively, gothic script, printed on recto only, some marginal tears. One has a Bergisch Gladbach watermark which may be from the Zander paper mill which was set up in the town in 1829 and still exists today. As both items reprint anti-semitic documents, the possibility is that they date from the 1930's. [We are indebted to the National Library of Scotland for their help in identifying these items].
