EDITORS COMMENTS
During the First World War, the German military relied on various resources to support its war efforts, including raw materials for uniforms and equipment. One such resource was rabbit pelts, which were used to make warm clothing for soldiers. In this poster from 1917, a rabbit holds a sign in its mouth, urging people to turn in their rabbit pelts to traders and breeders for collection by the War Pelts (Kriegs-fell) AG in Leipzig. The text reads, "Kanin-felle abliefern! an Handler und Zuchtvereine. Das Heer braucht sie!" which translates to "Rabbit pelts to be delivered! To traders and breeders. The Army needs them!" This poster was an effective way to encourage the German population to contribute to the war effort by utilizing their resources, specifically their rabbit herds. The collection center, War Pelts (Kriegs-fell) AG, played a crucial role in the process of gathering and distributing the pelts to be made into warm clothing for the soldiers on the front lines. This poster is a poignant reminder of the unique ways in which communities came together during wartime to support their armed forces.
