Rare genuine WWII German leaflet, Le bain de sang.
Printed in French, this propaganda document was intended for discrediting Britain in the eyes of the French people in general, and its armed forces in particular.
This short comic strip aims at exposing the alleged manipulation of France by its British ally, the latter being shown dragging the former to a bloodbath, thus referring to their almost simultaneous declaration of war on Germany on September 3, 1939.
Good overall condition; the following mention has been written on the reverse: Tract jeté par les Allemands dans la région de S.F.H. en oct. 1939.
