NSDAP Membership Verification Certificate-Kreisleitung Gustrow-1934

Original framed National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP) membership verification certificate dated December 20, 1934, issued by the Kreisleitung (District Leadership) Güstrow in Mecklenburg, Germany.

This historically significant document certifies that August Betz was a member of the NSDAP Ortsgruppe (Local Group) Güstrow from 1929 to 1930, listing his party membership number as 103,556 and recording his residence as Marienhof near Krakow. The certificate bears the official NSDAP letterhead featuring the party emblem, an original district seal, and period signature of the Kreisgeschäftsführer (District Business Manager).

Documents verifying early NSDAP membership are particularly sought after because they provide direct evidence of party affiliation during the years before the Nazi Party’s rise to power. Membership numbers in this range indicate relatively early enrollment compared to the millions of members who joined after 1933.

The piece remains professionally framed and presents exceptionally well as a display item for advanced collectors of WWII-era documents, German political history, and Third Reich paper relics.
