PUT A FACE ON HISTORY-

ID CARDS PUT A FACE ON HISTORY-! The stamped portrait photo on an ID card is as real as it gets to revealing a glimpse of the everday life inside the Reich. What was an unknown flicker of history now becomes a known reality, and everything about the individual and his/her duties inside The Third Reich are made available-- meticulously documented and recorded, providing a picture-perfect vision in the mind's eye as to what the individuals' day might have been like. This is the power of the German Third Reich ID card-! In fact, all Reich Documents and papers evoke a very real sense and feeling of an era in time that has since passed into the limelight. They were prepared- in many cases- as an order or a source of information- and as such, passed through the chain of command--being signed-stamped at each junction; the Reich machinery at work. *************95% of REICH DOCUMENTS ARE INEXPENSIVE AND ALL ARE AUTHENTIC-!! There are always a few ss or soldbuchs which are questionable, but by and large, it's like a big, wide open frontier--! All of it Silver and Gold nuggets just waiting for a happy home-! Imagine...buying something and knowing from the very start it is a 100% original piece of history. That's the Paper Reich--and welcome to it-! Documents are items that fit easily into a collector's or historian's library of memorabilia, both in terms of display and cost. Few things look nicer when professionally framed.
