The NS-Vermittlungsstelle was a department established in May 1938 to handle National Socialists' claims against the government. These records involved the Legionäre, (Austrian Nazis who fled to Germany before 1938 and returned after Austria's Anschluss or reunification with Nazi Germany in the spring of 1938), heirs of killed or executed party members, and others.

Fragebogen der NS-Vermittlungsstelle Wien, Lev Masterer
1938 Nazi questionnaire
The Bewerbungsfragebogen consists of a folder of four pages, each measuring 8-1/4 x 11-5/8 inches (A4). This questionnaire was completed on 19 October 1938 by Lev Masterer, who supplied the Reichsstatthalter with a profile photograph of himself in uniform holding his Nazi SA dagger by the blade in his right hand (see close-up below)!
He had been a Boy Scout from 1927-1931, he was a trained butcher, and he could type. When he filled out this Bewerbungs-fragebogen he was 25 years old, and not married.
Masterer was born on 28 August 1913 in Vienna and joined the SA on 1 July 1931. He joined Ortsgruppe Donaustadt of the Nazi Party on 3 July 1932. His Nazi Party membership number was 1,088,101. His last rank in the Oesterreichische Legion was SA Führer and his rank in the SA was Obertruppenführer.

The handwritten entries show that after organizing a Nazi rally in Vienna with two friends and "liquidating a traitor" (see red arow on photo below), Masterer fled to Nazi Germany in July 1934. In November 1936 he volunteered with the Luftwaffe and he was "entrusted with his own airplane". In May 1937 he crash landed at Bad Godesberg, which resulted in a 6 month jail sentence by the Oberkriegsgericht 4 in Münster. After the reunification of Austria with Hitler's Germany in the spring of 1938, Masterer marched into Austria with his Krad- und Kraftfahrsturm, a motorcycle and motor vehicle SA unit.
These Fragebogen formed a very comprehensive human resources file for the Nazi Party in Austria after the Anschluß and the information provided was thoroughly checked by the Gestapo. The Nazis could easily fill jobs in their hierarchy in Austria with reliable, experienced Austrians whom they could call home from abroad. Complete surviving examples of these original Nazi Party questionnaires are extremely rare.
This 81 year old questionnaire is complete with its original ID photo of Lev Masterer wearing his Nazi SA uniform and holding his SA dagger in front of him! This Fragebogen contains an extra handwritten page which Masterer signed with Heil Hitler! Very good condition with the usual punched file holes.
