Kakas Marton - A large collection of 50 issues (Consecutive, bound) of the Hungarian antisemitic magazine "Kakas Marton". Budapest, January - December 1898. From the rarest early antisemitic publications known to us today.
The issues are accompanied by many antisemitic cartoons portraying the Jews as the enemies of Hungarian society and the kingdom.
Kakas Marton was published in Budapest once every two weeks between 1894-1914 as an annex to Hírlap. The first editor of the magazine was Victor Rakausi who published under the pseudonym Sipulusz. It was later edited by Szöllősi and then by Andre Rákosi. The reporters who wrote in it gained great popularity in Hungarian society.
The new Hungarian kingdom founded in 1867 first enacted the Emancipation Law, which gives Jews equal rights like all citizens of the country. In 1895 further progress was made and even the Jewish religion was recognized as one of the religions in the country, and gained equal status with the Catholic religion and the Protestant religion. As a result, the proportion of Jews among the leaders in economic, commercial, legal, and cultural life rose rapidly toward the end of the 19th century. While their share of the general population was about four percent, about half of the merchants, doctors and lawyers were Jews. As a result, a widespread antisemitic awakening began, led by MP Victor Ishtuzi. Against this background, the weekly before us was published. The purpose of the issues was to ridicule and highlight the differences between the Jews and the danger they pose to Hungarian society. Alongside cartoons mocking the heads of the Hungarian government, there are cartoons mocking the Jews and their overt and covert influence on Hungarian society.
Extremely rare. The magazine was not mentioned at all in "Die Juden in der Karikatur" which was published in 1921.

Das problem der ostjuden - The Problem of the Jews of the East, by Paul Nathan - an early attempt to arouse the Jews of Germany to take care of their fate towards the difficult future. Published by Philo Verlag und Buchhandlung Berlin, 1926. only edition.
An early attempt that is a kind of 'prophecy' to solve the 'Jewish problem' at an early stage, written by a Jew in Berlin itself. The author, Dr. Paul Natan [1857-1927], a German-Jewish journalist, politician and philanthropist, who founded and headed the German Jewish Aid Society ("Hilfsverein der Deutschen Juden") worked extensively to help the Jews of the world, especially to the Jewish community in Eretz Israel, and is one of the founders of the Technion in Haifa. In this essay he suggests that the Jews must solve the 'Jewish problem' themselves in the form of controlled immigration to the United States or to Eretz Israel, Before it will be too late. Paul clearly recognizes the pressure in which the Jews faced rising anti-Semitism in Germany. Five to six million Jews living in unbearable economic and political conditions in a relatively small area of northeastern Europe could inevitably lead to a catastrophe for the Jewish population in the future. Paul addresses the hundreds of thousands of Jews living in Germany at the time with they feeling that this is their natural home, that they will understand the reality, and that they will wake up to the seriousness of the situation, and that at least in the first instance they will emigrate to the safer Soviet region. It should be noted that at first Natan saw himself as a German and did not deal with the Jewish issue, but only within the framework of state laws and his general support for liberalism and equal rights. But when he tried to be elected to the Reichstag he was not accepted because he was jew. Out of frustration on the one hand, and concern over the rise of political anti-Semitism on the other, Nathan decided to devote himself to Jewish affairs.

Kleine Rassenkunde des deutschen Volkes - A short ethnology of the German people by Prof. Dr. Hans Friedrich Karl Günther with one hundred illustrations and 13 maps. Published by F. lemanns, Munich 1935. Antisemitic publication in a "scientific" disguise that compares the skulls of the "inferior" races - the Jews, and others to The German: Many photographs of portraits and racist analysis of the skulls of European peoples compared to Jews.
The author [1891-1968] is considered one of the most prominent influencers of Nazi racist thought, and his theories stemmed from the prevailing Norse ideology at the time. He goes on to characterize and investigate the Jewish race in an attempt to determine its inferiority from a "scientific" point of view. In his opinion, the Ashkenazi Jew is a mixture of races from East and West, "a foreign plant that flowed from Asia into the European texture" and has different physical characteristics from those of the original Europeans. It divides the European population into six races whose chosen one is the Norse race, and calls for the unification of the Norse peoples to ensure their control, and warns against mixing them with other races. In the book many photographs of portraits of the various races, with individual reference to each organ in the face, and an attempt to "scientifically" explain the superiority of the Aryan race over the other races.
It is known that Adolf Hitler encouraged Hans' theories, and his library had four different editions of the book. In one edition, particularly prominent signs of use were found, and Hitler included his books in the list of books recommended for all Nazis to read.
Gunther joined the Nazi Party in 1932 as the only leading race theorist to join the party before coming to power in 1933. In 1935 he was declared by the party as "the pride of the National Socialist Party", and in 1940 he received the Goethe Medal for Arts and Sciences from Hitler. In March 1941 he was received as a distinguished guest at the opening conference of the "Alfred Rosenberg Institute for the Study of the Jewish Question" at which the possibility of sending Jews to labor camps was discussed. After the war he was detained and placed in detention camps for three years, but was released as it was determined that he had not incited to murder. Even after the fall of Nazi Germany, he continued to adhere to his racial theories, engaging in "state-sponsored family structure planning", and denying the Holocaust until his death.

The antisemitic film "The Rothschilds" describes the life of the Rothschild family in the Jewish ghetto in Frankfurt until it reached positions of control in France, Germany, Austria and Britain. It was first screened in 1934 in America, and was soon used by the Nazi Party, which sought antisemitic material to screen on film. The movie "The Rothschilds" deals with antisemitic propaganda under the guise of a plot that allegedly reveals the true character of the Jews in general. In the movie, the Jews were portrayed as corrupting the world economy and trade, and as having self-interest at the expense of the countries in which they live. The film is intended to convey to the German public the message that the Jews are the greatest enemy of the economy living within them.

The first ever exposure of Nazi Germany's antisemitic propaganda machine against the Jews in all areas of life. The book reports on the forms of anti-Semitism as expressed at the time of publication, and relies on dozens of sources: the Nazi press itself, the German schools and education, and the official institutions in Germany - many photographs and documents that first appeared in the publication before us revealing "The situation of the Jew in Germany currently".
Brave and early publicity of its kind examining The difficult situation of German Jews in all areas of life under the influence of Nazi racism, before the deportation of the Jews to the death camps and the terrible Holocaust. Exposure of severe antisemitic Public phenomena that at that time were not known to the wider world such as: Deportation of Jews from businesses in German medicine, law, and culture.

Deutsche Kunst und entartete "Kunst". Kunstwerk und Zerrbild als Spiegel der Weltanschauung, herausgegeben - German art and degenerate "art". Distorted works of art and images as a mirror of the worldview, edited by Dr. Adolf Dressler. Munich, 1938. An antisemitic propaganda pamphlet which accompanied the exhibition entartete "Kunst" - 'Degenerate Art'.
In the preface to the pamphlet, Dressler expresses more than anything the following antisemitic worldview expressed in the exhibition and in the accompanying pamphlet: "At the same time as the resurrection of the German people, we are experiencing the revival of German art. The two cannot be separated, as art is the living part of the people and the true reflection of its inner life, in the pre-war period German art began to detach from the people. Art can not live without a living connection with the people ... only when the Fuhrer, in parallel with the takeover of political power, began to reshape the entire basis of life of the German people through the National Socialist worldview, a tremendous change in German art also began. Adolf Hitler argued again the eternal appreciation of real art ... Thus began a new era for German artistic creativity, paving the way for artists to act out of an inner conviction, which is no longer subject to criticism by a Jewish-Bolshevik literary clique ... "
The booklet included photographs from the exhibition by artists such as Otto Dix, George Gross, Ferdinand Spiegel, Walter Hawk, Herman Taubert, Adolf Ziegler, Schmidt-Rotloff, Paul Roloff, Oscar Kokushka, Thomas Baumgartner, Max Beckman, and many more. When the works are displayed opposite each other on the corresponding page - a German work versus a 'degenerate Jewish work' accompanied by antisemitic sentences in the style "against each other", such as: "Plastic of the liberal age. Degenerate as the painting was the sculpture. Only distorted idiots were presented to the people as "works of art on the front, " or "At all times, the praise of the homeland was one of the most beautiful tasks of the creative artist. But what is the meaning of the German landscape to the Jewish desert people and its distorted followers?" Etc.
The antisemitic exhibition Entartete "Kunst" ["Degenerate Art"], initiated and run by the German Reich Propaganda Office, opened in Munich in July 1937 and featured some 650 works by about 100 famous artists confiscated from museums and galleries throughout Germany [including Chagall, Monk, Matisse, and Kandinsky] in order to put them to ridicule in the eyes of the public. At the same time about 20,000 works of art found in public museums in Germany were sold or destroyed. The works were hung in the exhibition rooms in a chaotic crowded manner, and were accompanied by text labels that ridicule the art.
The purpose of the exhibition was to show the public the 'decay of civilization' through original works of the human race, in the face of the great turning point in German works striving for a clean and progressive future. The Nazis called this art an "insult to German feelings." Degenerate art was defined as non-German, Jewish, or communist art in its character. The exhibition is designed to present everything that the Nazis perceived as corrupt, degenerate and perverted in modern art.
The exhibition traveled to several cities in Germany until 1941. It was accompanied by propaganda materials such as pamphlets, postcards and posters which created the antisemitic atmosphere within the framework of Nazi propaganda. Culturally, the exhibition was the culmination of the presentation of the Nazi 'enlightenment' and 'progress' in the face of the Jewish 'decay' that threatens to destroy the world in the field of art as well. The entry to the exhibition was free and was visited by over two million people during the years of its presentation. During the exhibition avant-garde German artists were now classified as enemies of the state and a threat to German culture. Many went into exile, others continued to live in Germany, but were banned from teaching at universities and the Gestapo would make surprise visits to them to make sure they were not engaged in art. Jewish artists who did not flee were sent to the extermination camps.

On the back of the card is a map showing the way to the "deutschland" exhibition that was shown not far from the stadium where the Olympics were held. The card itself is extremely rare, and especially with the unused lunch voucher, which we have not seen another example of.
The exhibition "Germany", which was presented at the initiative of the Nazi propaganda ministry, is intended to glorify the Nordic race, and to emphasize its superiority over other races, as well as the cultural superiority of Germany, as expressed in the film "Olympia" produced by German director Lenny Riefenstahl.

Issue of the antisemitic magazine 'La Difesa della Razza' - 'Race Defense'. May 20, 1939 - Many distortions of Jewish sources in an attempt to present the 'true Jew' who poses a threat to the countries of the world, And articles in race theory.
On the top of the cover of the issue the antisemitic inscription was written : "Be human and not stupid sheep, so that the Jew among you, will not laugh" (Quote that appeared regularly on the cover of the issues). The title page of the issue is an antique-style picture of horsemen on horses and the author quoted from Jewish sources as "In the destruction of Rome immediately our redemption". The main article describes a 'first exposure' of quotations that appear in the Talmud and are directed against the nations of the world in general and against the Italian nation in particular, alongside images of Jews with an Oriental orientation. The author sharply antisemitically analyzes the behavior of the Jewish nation for 1900 years. The Jews arrive as refugees in a foreign country, create a 'country within a country', take over the country they entered and soon disappear from history - this is what happened to the Babylonian Empire, the Russian Empire and more. The Jews then move on to take over another country. This behavior was characterized, according to the author, by ancient Jewish sources, from which he often quotes passages condemning the nations of the world. Then there is an antisemitic article about a 'Jewish army' being built in the United States and threatening its enemies, another article quoting a distortion from Jewish sources as if they see the non-Jewish woman as an inferior animal from a dog accompanied by harsh antisemitic images, a racist article characterizing The real Italian to the fake Italian - the Jew, and deals with the sources of the Jewish race. There is also an antisemitic article about the arrival of the Jews in Italy - this article also contains distorted quotations from Jewish sources, another article deals with condemnation of Jewish art and artists, and more.
The La Difesa della Razza [Race Defense] an Italian bi-weekly published between August 1938 and June 1943, by Telesio Interlandi, published by Tumminelli in Rome (5 years in which a total of 117 issues were published), initiated by Benito Mussolini who believed in the scripture to assimilate antisemitic ideas And racism among the Italian population.The sheets constituted the main antisemitic tool of the fascist regime, designed to promote fascist racial laws in Italy.The aim was to spread a "scientific" doctrine of racial theory, and to convince Italians that colonialism, bans on intermarriage and intermarriage Anchored in the laws of nature.The magazine presented baseless ideas in support of the superiority of the Aryan race to which the Italians claimed the Italians should belong, and warned of the 'biological contamination' that might occur if the Italians mixed with the 'inferior races'. In the 'scientific' sections of the magazine, racism and anti-Semitism gained legitimacy from a medical and biological point of view, with a focus on presenting false 'genetics' theories. The magazine even deals a lot with demography in an attempt to present statistical forecasts showing the “non-Aryan” races in constant decline compared to the Aryan races. The deeper Italy went into war with the participation of the Axis powers, the more the issue officer in antisemitic propaganda, blaming the Jews for the war, and warning of the "risks" of mixing with the Jews, which could lead to "social pollution."
