The 6-1/2 x 9-1/2 inch, 48 page heavily illustrated booklet Polnische Blutschuld or “Polish Capital Crime” was printed shortly after the slaughter of Volksdeutschen or ethnic Germans in western Poland in September 1939. According to eyewitness statements taken under oath, members of the Polish military murdered thousands of Volksdeutschen, men, women and children, just after the Nazi invasion of Poland on 1 September 1939.

An original complete, very rare exposé in the German language of a monstrous event largely overlooked by historians today. It is in nice used condition, the spine has been taped on the inside. No odor.

According to sworn testimony in Polnische Blutschuld, from 1 - 3 September ethnic Germans living in western Polish cities like Bromberg, were systematically murdered, beaten to death, shot, stabbed, had their skulls smashed and limbs cut off. When the German Wehrmacht arrived around 4 September they found plundered houses, bodies buried in shallow graves with tongues cut off, without eyes, and skulls with holes so big that the brain had slid out.

This rare Third Reich publication is full of gruesome photos of the events described above, copies of reports (Vernehmungs-Protokollen) taken from survivors by German Wehrmacht personnel in September 1939, pictures of graves, and death announcements that filled newspapers for weeks after the massacre.
