Dortmund – German Star of David

The German Star of David (Jewish stars) is in worn condition and was found in the city of Dortmund.
This star was produced in 1942 by the German flag manufacturer Geitel & Co in Berlin.
Around 1 million German Stars of David were produced at this factory, earning the company some 30,000 Reichsmarks.
The price of a star in Germany was set at 10 Pfennigs each.
During the war, not only stars of David and flags were produced, but also the cloth insignia for Polish and other Eastern European forced labourers.
