On offer is a genuine “Arbeitsbuch” from the Deutsches Reich, an employment record book that was compulsory for all workers in Nazi Germany. This historical document provided a record of an individual’s employment history, mandatory under the German labor laws of the time.
The Arbeitsbuch’s exterior presents a somber reminder of its origins, with the stark emblem of the eagle and swastika of the Third Reich emblazoned on the cover. It’s a dark, resilient cover that has protected the contents through the decades.
Inside, the Arbeitsbuch contains detailed entries that include the worker’s personal information, employment records, and official stamps from the period’s employers. Each page is a testament to the organized and stringent record-keeping that was a hallmark of the era. The handwritten entries and official stamps provide authenticity and give us a direct glimpse into the life of a worker during a time of intense regulation and control.
This Arbeitsbuch is not only a collectible item for those interested in military or World War II memorabilia but also a poignant piece of history, offering insight into the daily lives of individuals under the Third Reich. It serves as an educational piece, illustrating the extent of documentation and surveillance in the labor sector during the Nazi regime. It would make a significant addition to any historical collection, providing a tangible link to a past that should never be forgotten.
