- Notes:
- Campaign election leaflet for the KPD in the November 6, 1932 elections. It calls out to workers to fight against opposing parties and their claims to support the workers during strikes. They deny that the NSDAP is against wage cuts since they have used the SA to break up strikes. It is the KPD that is fighting against hunger and facism, and that all workers should support.

- Notes:
- Campaign literature for Adolf Hitler that asks the voter not to split the vote between Hitler and Hindenburg. It argues that by doing so the voter allows Thälmann (KPD) or Duesterberg (DNVP) a chance. Ultimately, the literature supports the voting of Hitler over the incumbent Hindenburg.
