NAZI D.A.F. - DEUTSCHE ARBEITSFRONT CERTIFICATE.

This is an award a certificate of honor or in German EHRENURKUNDE, as you will see on the award.
presented to Mr, PHILIPP GLAFER, on the 1st of May 1940, no doubt for his effort in working with and producing the gas ZYKLON B. Used in the concentration camps.
GLAFER was one of the bosses of the company, I.G.Farben which produced the gas.
This recognition for his work also came with a cased none portable award which was also presented to the firm of I.G. FARBEN - INDUSTRIE.
After some research I found that GLAFER had indeed carried on with his projects working at the newly built I.G. FARBEN chemical plant in the U.S.A.
situated at General Aniline, Lindon, New Jersey.
I think what we have here is a very macabre, but also a very interesting and important piece of history.
Excellent condition.
