Ballot from the 1938 Austrian Anschluss.

Anschluss refers to the political union of Germany and Austria, achieved through Adolf Hitler's annexation of Austria in 1938. Collected by Louis Salmon during his U.S. Army service in Austria during and after World War II, the ballot asks if the voter approves the unification of Austria with the German Reich and supports the Nazi Party ticket. It is unclear whether this ballot is an original or a later reproduction.
