1942 GERMAN PROPAGANDA BRITISH POUND BANKNOTE
German propaganda flyer made by German forces during WWII to be dropped over Egypt, approx. 6 x 3.25 inches. The obverse looks like a British pound note but the reverse has an inscription written in Arabic translated as, 'If you look at this money you will remember that you can get ten times its weight in gold. That was because the paper was guaranteed by the Bank of England with its great resources of strength and riches. But England's greatness is gone with her possessions. It is waste paper now. What is its value? Certainly you know the cause of this. Each day that passes, the war which Britain declared, has tired the Imperial Forces, and every battle lost by England has been the cause of belittlement of British finance. The day is quickly approaching when each beggar in the street will refuse to accept a British pound note although you give it away. God, our father, has wished defeat of England, and it will be so.' Three vertical folds. Very good.
