Horst Wessel Memorial Plaque

I thought that I would share my latest purchase with you guys. A large bronze plaque about 13" in diameter that was once attached to a building. My guess is that it was attached possibly to a bulding related to the death of Wessel such as the rooming house he was shot in or the hospital where he died. The inscription is the same as on his grave marker. Horst Wessel items are very hard to come by and I couldn’t pass this one up!
