Beer Hall Putsch (Hitlerputsch) medal by Karl Goetz, 1923, obverse

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Beer Hall Putsch (Hitlerputsch) medal by Karl Goetz, 1923, obverse. The medal shows Adolf Hitler with a revolver, forcing Gustav Ritter von Kahr to end his speech and thereby starting the Beer Hall Putsch of November 8th, 1923. A number of features point to the artist's satirical intention: the inscription "NATIONAL GEN NATIONAL" (nationalist against nationalist), the swastika in reverse, and the inscription "HITTLER / PUTSCH" with an intended misspelling. Later, immediately after Hitler was named chancellor, Goetz became supportive of Hitler and the nazi ideology.
