"Unternehmen Wasserwelle"

A magnificent book in German language dealing with the German Propaganda forgeries during the second world war.
Under this assumed name Himmler had the security police of the third Reich produce propaganda forgeries. This did take place partly in the National Bureau of Printing in Berlin and partly in the concentration camp Sachsenhausen.
Within this camp, in a restricted area, specialists in printing and forgery were gathered. They were inmates from other concentration camps and prisons from all over Germany who in this way were "promoted".
All kinds of documents were manufactured, such as; passports, bank notes and even British stamps too. These forged British stamps were made for propaganda purposes and are examined and described through the magnifying glass in this handbook.
The book has been shown at following exhibitions and received the awards as mentioned:
