This is a wonderful, as-used empty example of an original Third Reich charity collection can from the Tag der deutschen Polizei or Day of German Police. While a few of these Nazi charity collection cans may still be found from time to time, an original example in good or better condition from the Day of German Police is very rare as that day only occurred once each year! This is an original red Nazi era can that still has its original paint and Tag der deutschen Polizei paper label.
As usual with these cans, the 6-7/8 inch tall can and its 4 inch tall pivoting bail handle were painted red at the factory (this can has never been repainted but still retains 95% of its original paint), and stamped in the metal along the bottom rim (under the paper police label) are the words Gau Kärnten. Inside the hinged lid is the original mechanism that handled coins deposited in the can through the slot located on top of the lid under the serial number 11060.
The hinged top of the can has the words Papier Geld on both sides of a round hole for rolled-up paper money. The 3-¾ inch tall white paper label that wraps around the can is decorated with a light blue 3-¼ inch tall Nazi eagle and swastika with the words Tag der deutschen Polizei written across it in black letters.
The bottom is stamped with the manufacturing information M. Westermann & Co. G.m.b.H. Neheim-Ruhr WESCO 8. There is a hinged hasp on the front which could be locked with a lead seal on a wire when in use.
The best thing about this Nazi Sammlerbüchse is its absolute originality. The coin check mechanism and the hasp still work exactly as intended and it has no rust inside. This police charity collection can has never been owned by a collector or dealer and while it is obvious that it was used, it is complete and original in every way and in very nice used condition.
