| At the bottom of the oval is an acorn and oak leaf below the word NÜRNBERG in Fraktur lettering. There is not an eagle or swastika on this piece anywhere.
Of course, the city of Nuremberg was the home of Reichsparteitag or Reichs Party Day late in the summer each year. But the town also hosted the worlds largest toy exhibition and book show as well. Even those who came for Reichs Party Day did not necessarily bring home a bag of souvenirs emblazoned with Nazi insigne. Some purchased tasteful mementoes like this one that played up the citys ancient past and beautiful skyline. |

| There was a very important Nazi Thingstätte in Heidelberg as well as one of the first universities in Germany to embrace Nazism. Heidelberg has always been a very popular tourist destination and hosts tens of thousands of visitors every year. Even those who came to Heidelberg during the Nazi era did not necessarily bring home a bag of souvenirs emblazoned with Nazi insigne. Some purchased tasteful mementoes like this one that played up the citys ancient past and beautiful castle.
This piece is in fine condition and is without a doubt from the Third Reich period |
