REICHSPARTEITAG
(REICH PARTY CONVENTION)

The Reich's Party Convention Rally or Nuremberg Rally, as it is better known in English, was the annual celebration and propaganda show piece for the Nazi Party and was held every year from 1923 to 1938 (exclusively in Nuremberg from 1927). Nuremberg was situated at the centre of the Reich where the Nazi base was strong and the local organiser, Julius Streicher had strong connections to the local Franconian police force who were sympathetic to the Nazi cause.

10th PARTY CONGRESS
(5th/12th Sep 1938)
"The Rally of Greater Germany"

As in previous years there were a large number of private postcards published to commemorate the rally. Below are a few of the postcards available at the time, there are many more than shown here.

There was a seies of 64 postcards published by Hoffmann of München and these are numbered 38/01 to 38/64. Those from 38/01 to 38/19 are in colour and the remaining 38/20 to 38/64 are black and white. Some of these were re-issues of the 1936 and 1937 Reichsparteitage postcards only now with a '38' instead of '36' or '37' on the reverse.
