A photograph of an antisemitic figurine at the Cologne Carnival, 1934
A photograph of an antisemitic figurine in the shape of a puppet of a Jew who was executed hanging on a rope in front of the amused crowd, as part of the carnival held in Cologne in 1934. Described in German on the back: "Karneval in Köln. Eine Puppe eines Juden" - "Carnival in Cologne, a puppet of a Jew 1934."
During the 1930s, the Nazis staged a number of carnival processions in which antisemitic performances in the form of a traveling procession appeared in front of an audience on a city street. Parades of this kind took place in Cologne, Nuremberg, the traditional Airbetlan Festival in the town of Liesling and other cities in Germany. In some cases, SA members forced Jews to carry antisemitic signs themselves, such as "A decent German does not buy from a Jew." The photo is known in which the Jewish lawyer Dr. Michael Spiegel was seen who was humiliated on the streets of Munich when he was forced to carry a sign that read: "I will never complain to the police again", after he complained to the police on behalf of a Jewish client.
For a more detailed about this phenomenon, see 'Flashes of Memory', a photograph during the Holocaust, published by Yad Vashem 2018.
9x7 cm. The photo is damaged in the upper right.
