This is a rare historical artifact—a complete set consisting of an NSDAP party membership book and two Golden Party Badges, one large and one small. These items belonged to Jakob Schätzhauer, party number 44460, as confirmed both in the book and on the badges.
The NSDAP Party Book is an official document certifying membership in the National Socialist German Workers' Party. Its red cover, adorned with an eagle and swastika, signifies the owner's status within the party. Inside, personal details, a photograph, signatures, and official stamps dated 1929 can be seen.
The Golden Party Badges were the highest honors awarded to NSDAP members, recognizing early membership and dedication to the party's ideology. They feature a distinctive design—a central swastika surrounded by an enameled ring inscribed with "Nationalsozialistische D.A.P." and enclosed in a golden wreath.
Additionally, Jakob Schätzhauer was a member of the SS and a recipient of the honorary Totenkopf ring, indicating his distinguished status within the organization.
This set stands as a historical artifact, reflecting an era, its events, and the individuals who played a role in shaping history.
