Official War Crimes Trials Photograph of Reich Minister of Labor Franz Seldte

$45.00

Approximately 1-3/4 inches by 3 inches. During the Nuremberg trials, Seldte tried to exonerate himself by claiming that he had stood against the dictatorship of Hitler and that he advocated for a two-chamber system of parliamentary governance. His story was not convincing. Seldte died in a US military hospital in April 1947 at Fürth, before the Nuremberg Tribunal had the chance to formally try him on the charges.
