Description
German American Bund FBI Agent Archive Pennant, Brochure, Newspaper Clippings. This is the from a scrapbook of a former FBI agent who participated in a raid on a German American Bund compound in New Jersey in the 1930s at the time when the Government was going after the Bund to curtail their activities. The highlight of the group is a double sided German American Bund Pennant measuring 11 1/2 by 8 inches, and brochure from D.A.B. (DEUTSCHE AMERICAN BUND) Bergwald Camp (by Riverdale) in New Jersey with the group also having some period newspaper clippings on the raid that the agent participated in. There is no info on the agent’s name other than he writes in the scrapbook that he participated in the raid. It is interesting to note that when the FBI did raid German American Bund offices/homes etc they would seize regalia/paperwork/brochures etc. A fantastic grouping. LH8887
