Original Imperial German WWI Bavarian 1914 Paul von Hindenburg Ceramic Plate

Original Item. Only One Available. Paul Ludwig Hans Anton von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg (2 October 1847 – 2 August 1934), usually shortened to Paul von Hindenburg, was a German field marshal and statesman who led the Imperial German Army during World War I. He later became president of Germany from 1925 until his death. During his presidency, he played a key role in the NSDAP seizure of power in January 1933 when, under pressure from his advisers, he appointed Adolf H as chancellor of Germany.

This is an outstanding ceramic plate depicting Paul von Hindeburg, dated 1914. The front of the plate is embossed with Hindenburg’s face, although the front shows heavy wear and staining, although much of this could be cleaned.

The plate no longer retains the hanging wire so it’ll need to be replaced. It is marked on the back:

Professor Anton von Hoffmann
München

Rosenthale
Kunst-Abreilung
Selb Bavaria

This indicates that it was manufactured by the renowned Rosenthal porcelain factory in Selb, Bavaria, and was distributed by Professor Anton von Hoffmann of München.

A great piece, ready for further research and display!
