This is a large document grouping of 100% original Third Reich identity documents, passes and correspondence that all belonged to Hans Schrepfer, a slender man with blue-gray eyes and blond hair born 31 July 1909 in Hof an der Saale. He joined the Nazi Party on 1 July 1930 just before his 21st birthday.

This is the only document grouping we have ever offered that includes TWO absolutely original red Nazi Party Membership books / IDs (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei Mitgliedsbuch), both issued to Hans Schrepfer; one is the 1927 edition and the other is the 1935 edition.

Since the 4-1/8 x 5-1/4 inch hardcover Ausgabe 1935 Nazi Party Membership ID is a continuation of the first one issued to Schrepfer in 1931, pages 7-8 and 9-10 were carefully removed as the personal information about the owner was in his older, original Mitgliedsbuch.

Ausgabe 1927 of the Nazi Party Membership ID is number 269667 issued on 21 August 1931. It still has the original ID photo of Hans Schrepfer wearing sports clothing, above the 35 mm round swastika stamp of NSDAP Ortsgruppe Kirchenlamitz. There are entries about address changes and official SA entries about promotions (by October 1934, 25 year old Schrepfer was a Truppführer in SA Standarte 29 Selb).

These early Nazi Party membership IDs have Nazi propaganda slogans at the top and bottom of many of the pages, some of them very anti-Jewish (curse the Jews, destroy the Jews, curse the Jewish Press, etc.)    >>>>>>

This Nazi Party ID has 26 Parteibeitrage stamps (through August 1939) as well as 11 donation stamps to the Hilfskasse or Relief Fund of the NSDAP.   He also bought Reichsparteitag donation stamps for the Nazi Party Days in 1937 and 1938.

Both Nazi Party Membership IDs have a synopsis of the program of the Nazi Party, and advertising for the Central Publishing House of the NSDAP, Franz Eher Nachfolger in Munich, the printer of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf and the newspaper Der Völkische Beobachter.

The 1927 edition of the Nazi Party Mitgliedsbuch is seldom seen and the continuation of it in a second book is very rare indeed!

This extensive Third Reich document grouping also includes:

SA Quittungskarte, SA Dues Payment Receipt Card number 74 issued to Obertruppführer Hans Schrepfer, member of SA-Gruppe Bayerische Ostmark (Brigade 77, Sturmbann III, Standarte 28, Sturm 27/28). The back has nine SA der NSDAP donation stamps for October 1938 thru June 1939.

Besitzzeugnis SA Sport Abzeichen, Proof of Ownership of the SA Sport Badge which Hans Schrepfer received on 4 February 1936. With original ID photo of Schrepfer in his SA uniform.

SA Standarte 28 promotion card with a 35 mm round SA der NSDAP Standarte 28 Hof rubber stamp with an eagle and swastika in the middle, proof of Hans Schrepfer's promotion to Obertruppführer in May 1937.

Führerschein, a four-panel, 4 x 6 inch gray oil cloth driving permit issued to Hans Schrepfer in Wundsiedel on 27 August 1938. When it was issued he lived at Adolf Hitler Strasse 258 in nearby Marktleuthen. The original ID photo is missing the upper and lower right corners.

Deutsche Reichsbund für Leibesübungen, the blue linen hardcover German Gymnastics Association ID with a DRL eagle and swastika deeply embossed on the front cover shows that Hans Schrepfer had been a member since 1 January 1920. It still has the original ID photo and three colorful revenue stamps.

Deutsche Lebensrettungsgemeinschaft eV or German Life Saving Association Registered Society, a green DLRG Grundschein or Basic Certificate issued to Hans Schrepfer (name misspelled as Schröpfer!) on 15 August 1938 in Bamberg with the original ID photo of Schrepfer in his SA uniform. The blue Mitgliedskarte or membership card of the DLRG was issued on 5 January 1939 and has two revenue stamps.

Volksbund für das Deutschtum im Ausland, green membership card number 93626 for the Bayern (Bavaria) chapter of the VDA (National League for the Furthering of Germanism Abroad) issued on 1 January 1938.

The lot also includes two cards issued to Uffz. Schrepfer for Urlaub or leave. One was issued by Dienststelle Feldpostnummer 09622D for Stadturlaub and a Nacht-Urlaubskarte was issued on 18 February 1943. We do not know in what capacity Schrepfer served in the Wehrmacht, but from the Feldpost number we suspect he had an administrative job for the staff of an Infantry Company.

Shown right is an envelope addressed to the dentist of Hans Schrepfer located on Hans Schemmstrasse 28 in Marktleuthen containing a bill and insurance paperwork for very expensive dental work for his wife, Frau Schrepfer, dating to January 1942.

This extensive Third Reich ID lot also includes one very rare postwar identity document, proof that Hans Schrepfer survived the war and ended up as a prisoner at Internierungs- und Arbeitslager Dachau or Internment and Labor Camp Dachau, on the northern outskirts of Munich, in the recently liberated Dachau Concentration Camp! It was set up by the US Army to incarcerate former concentration camp personnel, members of the Nazi Sicherheitspolizei, people suspected of murdering crashed American flight crews and former Nazis awaiting trial. Internment and Labor Camp Dachau was divided into several sections and Hans Schrepfer was a prisoner in A-Lager, the main camp. We have never before had the opportunity to offer an Internierungs- und Arbeitslager Dachau identity document of any kind.

The light blue cardstock ID measuring about 3 x 4-1/8 (folds open to 4-1/8 x 5-7/8 inches) is number 3145 and the original ID photos shows that Schrepfer was prisoner number 2224.

A fine, historical Nazi document grouping, all pieces 100% original!

This Dachau internment
document is very, very rare!
