Dated on the upper right: Weihnachten 1935.

Website comment: There must be literally thousands of these cards around; they are easily forged on light cream card, but the emblem has to be embossed in Gold, which is not so easy to forge. Similar pre-war cards express Hitler’s thanks to senior diplomats, and enclose a Christmas packet of coffee (part of an annual shipment he received from the Sultan of Yemen).
