Hans von Tschammer und Osten led the German Sports Office Deutscher Reichsausschuss für Leibesübungen (DRA) "German Reich Commission for Physical Exercise" after the Nazi seizure of power in 1933. In July the same year Hans von Tschammer took the title of Reichssportführer, "Reich Sports Leader", and the whole sports sphere in Germany was placed under his control. He re-established the organization he led, transforming it into the Sports governing body of the Third Reich, Deutscher Reichsbund für Leibesübungen (DRL) "Sports League of the German Reich". In 1937 it was renamed Nationalsozialistischer Reichsbund für Leibesübungen "National-Socialist Sports League of the German Reich". Von Tschammer held the high-profile post of Reichssportführer until his death in 1943.
This rare litho comes directly from the famous publishing house 'Franz Hanfstaengl' from Munich were it was discovered last year.
Franz Hanfstaengl was one of the intimate followers of Adolf Hitler.
Hanfstaengl and Hitler remained close through the 1920s and early 1930s.
He considered Hitler a diamond in the rough, lacking refinement and social skills. He took it upon himself to do the polishing. Introducing Hitler to Munich’s high society, he helped finance the publication of Mein Kampf and, dollar rich in inflation-hit Germany, bankrolled the NSDAP’s newspaper Völkischer Beobachter.
