The National Socialist German Workers' Party (abbreviated in German as NSDAP), commonly referred to in English as the Nazi Party, was a far-right political party in Germany that was active between 1920 and 1945, that created and supported the ideology of National Socialism. Its precursor, the German Workers' Party (Deutsche Arbeiterpartei; DAP), existed from 1919 to 1920. The Nazi Party emerged from the German nationalist, racist and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against the communist uprisings in post-World War I Germany. The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism. Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti-big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric, although this was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s the party's main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes. Paul Joseph Goebbels (29 October 1897 – 1 May 1945) was a German Nazi politician and Reich Minister of Propaganda of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945. He was one of Adolf Hitler's closest and most devoted associates, and was known for his skills in public speaking and his deeply virulent antisemitism, which was evident in his publicly voiced views. He advocated progressively harsher discrimination, including the extermination of the Jews in the Holocaust.

Original antique epinal print poster for a battle at Austerlitz. The Battle of Austerlitz (2 December 1805/11 Frimaire An XIV FRC), also known as the Battle of the Three Emperors, was one of the most important and decisive engagements of the Napoleonic Wars. In what is widely regarded as the greatest victory achieved by Napoleon, the Grande Armée of France defeated a larger Russian and Austrian army led by Emperor Alexander I and Holy Roman Emperor Francis II. The battle occurred near the town of Austerlitz in the Austrian Empire (modern-day Slavkov u Brna in the Czech Republic). Austerlitz brought the War of the Third Coalition to a rapid end, with the Treaty of Pressburg signed by the Austrians later in the month. The battle is often cited as a tactical masterpiece, in the same league as other historic engagements like Cannae or Gaugamela. Epinal prints were prints on popular subjects rendered in bright sharp colours, sold in France in the 19th century. They owe their name to the fact that the first publisher of such images — Jean-Charles Pellerin — having been born in Epinal, named the printing house he founded in 1796, Imagerie d'Epinal. Acceptable condition, tears, paper losses, creasing, fold, line of printing error. Country of issue: France, designer: Georgin, size (cm): 44x63, year of printing: 1800s

Original antique epinal print poster for a Capitulation at Ulm. The Ulm campaign was a series of French and Bavarian military maneuvers and battles to outflank and capture an Austrian army in 1805 during the War of the Third Coalition. It took place in the vicinity of and inside the Swabian (then Bavarian) city of Ulm. The French Grande Armée, led by Napoleon Bonaparte, comprised 210,000 troops organized into seven corps, and hoped to knock out the Austrian army in the Danube before Russian reinforcements could arrive. Through rapid marching, Napoleon conducted a large wheeling maneuver that captured an Austrian army of 23,000 under General Mack on 20 October at Ulm, bringing the total number of Austrian prisoners in the campaign to 60,000. The campaign is generally regarded as a strategic masterpiece and was influential in the development of the Schlieffen Plan in the late 19th century. The victory at Ulm did not end the war, since a large Russian army under Kutuzov was still near Vienna. The Russians withdrew to the northeast to await reinforcements and to link up with surviving Austrian units. The French followed and captured Vienna on 12 November. On 2 December the decisive French victory at Austerlitz removed Austria from the war. The resulting Treaty of Pressburg in late December brought the Third Coalition to an end and left Napoleonic France as the major power in Central Europe, leading to the War of the Fourth Coalition with Prussia and Russia the following year. Epinal prints were prints on popular subjects rendered in bright sharp colours, sold in France in the 19th century. They owe their name to the fact that the first publisher of such images — Jean-Charles Pellerin — having been born in Epinal, named the printing house he founded in 1796, Imagerie d'Epinal.

The twin battles of Jena and Auerstedt were fought on 14 October 1806 on the plateau west of the river Saale in today's Germany, between the forces of Napoleon I of France and Frederick William III of Prussia. The decisive defeat suffered by the Prussian Army subjugated the Kingdom of Prussia to the French Empire until the Sixth Coalition was formed in 1812. Several figures integral to the reformation of the Prussian Army participated at Jena–Auerstedt, including Gebhard von Blücher, Carl von Clausewitz, August Neidhardt von Gneisenau, Gerhard von Scharnhorst, and Hermann von Boyen.

Original vintage epinal war propaganda poster issued in France during World War One for the Heroes of the Battle of Verdun. The Battle of Verdun, was fought from 21 February to 18 December 1916 on the Western Front in France. The battle was the longest of the First World War and took place on the hills north of Verdun-sur-Meuse. The German 5th Army attacked the defences of the Fortified Region of Verdun (RFV, Région Fortifiée de Verdun) and those of the French Second Army on the right (east) bank of the Meuse. Using the experience of the Second Battle of Champagne in 1915, the Germans planned to capture the Meuse Heights, an excellent defensive position with good observation for artillery-fire on Verdun. The Germans hoped that the French would commit their strategic reserve to recapture the position and suffer catastrophic losses at little cost to the Germans. Henri Philippe Benoni Omer Petain, was a French general officer who attained the position of Marshal of France at the end of World War I, during which he became known as The Lion of Verdun (Le Lion de Verdun). In collaboration with Nazi Germany, he then served as the Chief of State of Vichy France from 1940 to 1944. Petain, who was 84 years old in 1940, ranks as France's oldest head of state. Epinal prints were prints on popular subjects rendered in bright sharp colours, sold in France in the 19th century.

Original vintage propaganda poster issued during the Second World War in the Slovak Republic - Vitazstvo Albo Bolsevizmus - Victory or Bolshevism. Poster is similar in design to other Anti-Communist and Anti-Semitic posters printed by the Nazis during the war. The image is split into two parts - left shows smiling mother and child with the word victory above them, right side shows destroyed village with masacred people and grinning Red Army soldier wearing a hat with red star and a work Bolshevism above. Goebbels instructed Nazi propagandists to describe the invasion of the Soviet Union (Operation Barbarossa) as the “European crusade against Bolshevism” and the Nazis then formed different units of the Waffen-SS consisting of mainly volunteers and conscripts. After Stalingrad, the main theme changed to Germany as the sole defender of what they called "Western European culture" against the "Bolshevist hordes". The (First) Slovak Republic - Slovenska republika - otherwise known as the Slovak State, was a partially-recognized client state of Nazi Germany which existed between 14 March 1939 and 4 April 1945. The Slovak part of Czechoslovakia declared independence with German support one day before the German occupation of Bohemia and Moravia. The Slovak Republic controlled the majority of the territory of present-day Slovakia but without its current southern and eastern parts, which were ceded to Hungary in 1938 and 1939. It was the first time in history that Slovakia had been a formally independent state. A one-party state governed by the far-right Hlinka's Slovak People's Party, the Slovak Republic is primarily known for its collaboration with Nazi Germany, which included sending troops to the invasion of Poland in September 1939 and the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. In 1942, the country deported 58,000 Jews (two-thirds of the Slovak Jewish population) to German-occupied Poland, paying Germany 500 Reichsmarks each. After an increase in the activity of anti-Nazi Slovak partisans, Germany invaded Slovakia, triggering a major uprising. The Slovak Republic was abolished after the Soviet occupation in 1945 and its territory was reintegrated into the recreated Third Czechoslovak Republic. Good condition, minor tears, foxing, creasing, folds. Country of issue: Slovakia, designer: Unknown, size (cm): 89x123, year of printing: 1940s

A fine white and grey jade carving of a boy on hobby-horse17th/18th century Deftly carved as a standing boy with finely incised patch of hair atop his pate, carrying a spray of lotus in his right hand extending over his back, his left hand holding the reins of a hobby-horse between his legs, the stone of pale white tone with a grey patch. 8.5cm (3 3/8in) high. Footnotes:十七/十八世紀 白玉雕騎竹馬童子擺件Provenance: Gerard Arnhold (1918-2010) Born in 1918 in Dresden, Germany, Gerard Arnhold was from a well-known family of Jewish philanthropists. His family left Germany in 1936, after the Nazis came to power and seized their assets. He served in the British Army during the Second World War, before starting a successful technology company in Brazil. He and his family supported rebuilding efforts in Germany and many charitable causes, always working anonymously. Arnhold was also a generous supporter of the Durham Oriental Museum for many years.來源：Gerard Arnhold（1918-2010年)Gerard Arnhold，1918年出生於德國德累斯頓的著名猶太慈善家族。 1936年，在納粹上台並沒收其家族財產後，全家離開德國。他曾於第二次世界大戰期間效力於英軍，之後在巴西成功創立了一家科技公司。二戰後，Gerard及其家人長期匿名支持德國重建工作及其他慈善事業，他也是達勒姆東方博物館的長期捐贈者。Images of boys playing with a hobby horse form part of the popular 'boys at play' and 'Hundred Boys' subjects that emerged during the Song dynasty. This theme is symbolic of the Confucian ideal for the education and advancement of many sons, a wish further emphasised by the lotus (lian 蓮) he carries which is a homophone of 'continuous' (lian 連) and creates the rebus 'May you continuously give birth to sons'. As the boy is depicted riding a hobby-horse, this conveys the further wish for it to come quickly as 'to be on top of a horse' (mashang 馬上) means 'immediately'.Compare with a similarly finely-carved figure, but holding a rattle instead of a lotus stem, in the Museum of East Asian Art, Bath, (museum no.BATEA 1218); and a related figure of a boy holding a lantern on a pole, from the collection of Florence and Herbert Irving and now in the Metropolitan Museum, New York (acc.no.2015.500.5.14).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
