This lot was part of a huge grouping consigned by the family of former NSDAP Abschnittsleiter Leander Berger in April 2015. The family is still based in Austria today. Leander Berger was a high ranking NSDAP and DAF leader during the Third Reich and was punished after the war. Leander was one of the first Nazis in Austria in the early 1930s when the Party was still banned there. His NSDAP membership number was 83.215. Berger escaped to Germany and served as Gauhauptstellenwalter der DAF (Gau Thüringen) from 1934 until 1939 before he returned to Austria serving as Gaustellenleiter der NSDAP in Kärnten. He was promoted to a Reichseinsatzredner der RPL by Dr. Goebbels in 1944.
Very interesting photo grouping. These pages were cut out of an album once. 25 original photographs including 3 original photos of Hitler. One shows his mother in the background next two Hitler as the subtitles says. Another photo shows Hitler in front of his Berghof. All pictures were taken in 1934.
There are great photos of Berger taken in his office with a painting of Hitler in the background. A studio portrait shows Berger in full uniform with his pistol.
