An Unfolded German Special Poster (measures 32 3/4" x 47 1/4" [83 x 120 cm]) (Learn More) Mit Kraft Durch Freude in Den Fasching (literally translates to "With Strength Through Joy Into Carnival"), the 1937 German poster featuring art of a masked woman playing the accordion. Note that the title is referring to "Kraft Durch Freude" (Strength through Joy), the state-operated leisure organization of Nazi Germany. Munich (the Bavarian capital) used to be a carnival stronghold from the turn of the 19th to the 20th century until well into the 1930s, and it is in fact alive and kicking today. In 1914 alone, there were 533 masked balls and 145 black and white balls. This phenomenon of decadent hustle and bustle was created in particular by the artists of the Schwabinger Boheme, at first in the form of wild studio festivals, but increasingly also by artists' balls. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this German poster!
