Extensive attempts were subsequently made to erase Rohm from history; all copies of the propaganda film "The Victory of Faith", which featured Rohm, were ordered destroyed, and many books in which he appeared were likewise destroyed and republished. Ironically, the passage on Rohm ends with praise for his faithfulness to the party: "... Day and night, serving only his idea and his work, the chief of staff, Rohm, served as a guide to his Fuhrer, without which there would be no Third Reich today."

It includes an aerial "bomb's eye" view of the Imperial Palace and central Tokyo, as well as reports of American and allied gains in the Pacific, and admonitions for the civilian population to not resist the coming American attacks and possible invasion. One copy of this leaflet is mounted to a paper backing, and both bear folds and minor splitting, else very good. WITH: A 4to. leaflet bearing an image of Harry Truman, in Chinese, announcing the death of President Roosevelt and apparently announcing that American resilience will not be weakened by this loss. It was likely intended to reassure Chinese civilians in Japanese-occupied areas that America would not abandoned them in their fight. Folds, mounted to a paper backing, else very good. WITH: Three double-sided 12mo., leaflets, each featuring the flags of the United States and Nationalist China, boasting of the "complete unity" between the two nations against China's Japanese occupiers. One of these leaflets is mounted to a paper backing with another leaflet, depicting American planes launching raids from their newly-acquired island bases against various Japanese holdings. All bear folds, else very good. WITH: An 8vo. leaflet, in Annamite (Vietnamese) and French, aimed at the civilian population of then-French Indochina, featuring two photographs of French resistance members and jubilant civilians. The text describes the establishment of covert command posts by resistance members participating in the liberation of France from Germany. This is framed with a much smaller leaflet, aimed at the occupying Japanese troops, containing a simple order: "Surrender Alone". These leaflets were saved by an American pilot who occasionally flew missions to drop these leaflets over Japanese-held territory. Present with the grouping is the metal M-16 flare casing in which he preserved the material, ironically lot-dated Dec. 1941, as well as two labels taken from packets of other leaflets intended to be dropped over Indochina, describing their contents as instructions for rescuing downed airmen, and updating the populace as to the gains made against the Japanese.

AMERICAN ANTI-JAPANESE PROPAGANDA LEAFLETSGood group of three air-dropped leaflets, aimed at demoralizing the citizens of mainland Japan at the end of World War II.

All but Japan are marked with broken Japanese flagpoles, signifying defeats on those islands, and the hands of the clock rest on the Philippines at the eleven o'clock position, signifying that Japan's time is nearly up. The second leaflet, 5" x 7", is a simple map of the Pacific Ocean, depicting the distances between the recently captured island of Okinawa and important Japanese bases on Formosa (now Taiwan), China, and mainland Japan, demonstrating the ease with which American forces can attack each of these targets. The final leaflet, 7" x 10", is simply titled "Tokyo Becomes a Battlefield", and depicts a map of Japan superimposed over an aerial photograph of Tokyo, indicative of the view enjoyed by American bomber pilots. The verso bears a message entitled "American Air Force Fiercely Bombs Tokyo", and goes on to describe the frequent bombing raids launched against Tokyo by large groups of planes, with an admonition to surrender. The first two leaflets described are mounted in simple wood frames, and all bear folds, else very good.
