"Fips"

Philipp Rupprecht was born in Nuremberg, Germany in 1900. In 1920, he moved to Argentina where he became a gaucho and worked on a cattle ranch, but returned to his native Germany after only a few years abroad. He initially drew caricatures for a Social Democratic newspaper, but he soon came to the attention of the National Socialist Gauleiter Julius Streicher, who hired him as a cartoonist on the editorial staff of Der Stürmer. In the next few years, he became famous for his grotesque caricatures of stereotypical Jews under the pseudonym of "Fips"; his most popular work was a children's book entitled Der Giftpilz ("The Poisonous Mushroom"), published in 1938. In 1939, he was conscripted into the Kriegsmarine, but was soon discharged because of his natural talents as a propagandist. In 1945, he was arrested by the Allies and sentenced to 6 years of hard labor. "Fips" was released in 1950, and traveled to Munich where he became a house painter and interior decorator. He died in 1975.

An interesting little book

The Foreword translates as follows: "Dear reader! The book which you have just opened gives you colorful tales from the mysterious animal kingdom. You should not only watch animals but also certain - - humans. It is intended that you have fun with this book but also that you will learn from it. So who are these animals and humans now - will be your question. Just be patient! This book will answer your question.

If you don't like me my Reichsführer why did you appoint me NSDAP regional director for Northern Illinois? :shrug:

Here's another one called Trau keinem Fuchs auf grüner Heid und keinem Jüd auf seinem Eid (Trust No Fox on his Green Heath And No Jew on his Oath) by Elwira Bauer:

From my perspective, assigning these works as propaganda and Fips as a propagandist is the propaganda and not the works themselves. Propaganda indicates lies and deceit. These works may employ caricatures in both character and content but it is done in an informative tone, not a deceitful one.

Propaganda takes truth and attempts to turn it into a lie. Then presents it to the public for consumption.

How Fips portrayed Jews in his artwork is an accurate reflection of who they are in real life.

The ending of warmongering

The Jew it's, that must die, when's fired just the first shot from one of the cannons of incited nations

(This was excellent advice given by Fips in 1933, instead the too-kind Führer allowed the jews to leave and stir up more hate against Germany.)

Exactly. No propaganda there. The ones who have labelled it propaganda are the propagandists.
