scope and content: Nazi Party produced book with unflattering news photographs of celebrities and Jewish people in the United States, with insulting captions and selected quotes to negatively portray Jews in American life. Many of the photographs were supplied by the Associated Press. The pamphlet juxtaposes images of wealthy Jewish people with images of non-Jewish political figures, as well as the poor and homeless, as proof of the destructive and corrupting influence of Jewish wealth. This pamphlet is one of more than 900 items in the Katz Ehrenthal Collection of antisemitic visual materials.
