Bronze Hitler Wall Plaque

Product Description: This Bronze Hitler Wall Plaque is a desirable original piece of Third Reich art. It’s a nice and very displayable size, measuring about 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide. It depicts German leader Adolf Hitler, shown in profile, and is made of solid bronze. It has a somewhat impressionistic feel, with a pleasant overall look. The bronze surface shows expected toning and patina, as well as light freckling throughout, but no major damage to note. The reverse is flat, and is unfinished bronze; the bare metal has taken on a deep brown patina from age. There are two threaded blind holes on the reverse to allow this to be mounted for display. This Bronze Hitler Wall Plaque is an attractive example, that is in excellent condition overall.

Historical Description: Military, political, civil and paramilitary organizations during the Third Reich created a wide variety of non-portable awards, mostly in the form of award plaques and table medals, but also including decorative plates, various kinds of trophies, and usable gift items. These awards were generally presented in cases where a medal or award to be worn on the uniform would not be appropriate. Non-portable awards were given to winners of various types of sport contests, as well as to recognize distinguished service to military or civilian organizations, and even private companies. The table medals were typically originally awarded inside special custom fitted cases, similar to those used for some military awards. They could be made of metal, or in some cases porcelain, and were generally finely struck, and of high quality. The wall plaques were typically made of metal, often mounted to a wood base. They could feature Hitler, organizational emblems, or other military or patriotic themed decoration. There was a vast range of non-portable awards made and used during the Third Reich. Some were unique, custom works of art. There were also factories that issued catalogs filled with all kinds of different mass-produced items. After the war, most of these items that bore images of the swastika or Hitler were destroyed to comply with Allied denazification policy.
