Boris Tödtli: Papers and correspondence 

c1500 frames 

This microfilm collection of correspondence and papers documents the activities of Boris Tödtli, a Russian Nazi sympathiser and Anti-semite, who, as a leading light in the Swiss branch of Weltdienst organised the defence of the veracity of that infamous forgery The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. A large part of this collection consists of correspondence described as the 'Russian Letters', containing copies of the originals and French and German translations. These letters were confiscated by the Swiss police in Bern in relation to his prosecution for espionage. The letters are thought to prove a link between the different Russian military organisations of conservative character and of Fascist tendencies with the Pan-Aryan centre in Erfurt, Germany, directed by Colonel Ulrich Fleischhauer, editor of the World Service (Weltdienst), the notorious anti-Semitic publication.
