Booklet by Dr. Herman Rauschning (7 August 1887 – 8 February 1982), a German Conservative Revolutionary who briefly joined the Nazis before breaking with them. In 1934 he renounced Nazi party membership and in 1936 emigrated from Germany (eventually settling in the United States) and began openly denouncing Nazism. Rauschning is chiefly known for his book Gespräche mit Hitler (Conversations with Hitler), US title Voice of Destruction, UK title Hitler Speaks, in which he claimed to have had many meetings and conversations with Hitler.
Possibly created in 1917 when Paine was conscripted into the Admiralty Inspection Section during his time at the RCA.
This is one of a series of “Carrying On” pamphlet titled ‘the sentinel of the seas: the tireless vigil of the British navy’. The photo-pamphlets were published by Harrison and Jehring to boost British morale, showcasing civilian sacrifice, especially women’s new roles in industry, under the theme of “carrying on” as usual despite the war, a precursor to the famous WWII “Keep Calm and Carry On” slogan, emphasising steadfastness and national unity.
The style of Paine’s initials indicate an early work. cf. Early Works October 14, 2017
