This is an original 1938 Anschluss plebiscite ballot from the German-organized referendum held on March 13, 1938, shortly after the annexation of Austria into the German Reich. The question posed to voters asks whether they support the “reunification of Austria with the German Reich” and back Adolf Hitler as their Führer. The ballot is pre-marked in the large "Ja" circle — a striking example of political propaganda design, with the placement of the “Yes” option intentionally emphasized.
This example is professionally framed in dark wood and preserved in very good condition, making it ideal for collectors of World War II ephemera, propaganda materials, or historical documents of totalitarian regimes.
Details:
Original paper ballot issued in Vienna, 1938
Measures approx. 6 x 8 in (unframed); frame adds slight dimensions
Marked “Ja” with hand-written “X” as cast vote
Display-ready presentation
No rips, stains, or major creasing
