Notification of Closure of Jewish Businesses in France on behalf of the Nazi Authorities. Versailles 1940
Avis aux Gestionnaires d'Estreprises Juives [Notification to managers of Jewish Businesses]. Poster regarding the tightening grip on managers of Jewish businesses on behalf of the German occupation forces. French. Versailles, 01.12.1940.
The poster opens with the legal definition of a Jewish-owned business. The order requires business managers who fit this definition on 18.10.1940 to report within 48 hours at most to the chamber of commerce. It was also established that violation of the order will lead to closure of the business.
In 1940, the German army invaded France, conquered broad parts of it, and defeated its army within six weeks. Following this, the Vichy regime was established in France's "Free Zone," which cooperated with the Germans politically and militarily, persecuted the Jews of France and assisted with the implementation of the Nazi program to destroy them. This poster was published with the establishment of the occupation regime and was intended to collect information about Jewish businesses in order to dispossess them of their property.
