Description

This German propaganda leaflet was distributed during the Second World War in North Africa, mainly in areas under strong British influence such as Egypt. The front closely resembles a genuine British £1 banknote, complete with serial number, seal, and signature, designed to attract the finder's attention.The reverse, however, is printed with Arabic text spreading anti-British propaganda.The message aims to convince Arabic readers that Great Britain has lost its former power and wealth, and that the British pound is no longer valuable.Translation of the Arabic text:If you look closely at this banknote, you will remember the time when you could get ten times its value in gold and silver.That was because this note was once backed by the great British power, with all its strength and wealth.But that greatness has vanished, and with it the value of this paper has disappeared.What is the value of this paper today? Do you not know?The days of war have weakened England. The once mighty British Empire has fallen apart, and its currency has collapsed.Every day a piece of Britain's power is lost, and each year England loses more of its wealth and prestige.Today, Great Britain is but a shadow of what it once was.If you still believe in the strength of this paper, you are deceiving yourself.God has willed the downfall of Great Britain, and soon its destruction will be complete.Article number: 16876
