Background: This page includes five of the twelve pictures from a 1927 Nazi book on the Nuremberg rally of that year.

The source: Alfred Rosenberg and Wilhelm Weiß, Reichsparteitag der NSDAP Nürnberg 19./21. August 1927 (Munich: Verlag Frz. Eher, 1927).

This interesting picture shows the gathered Nazi leadership. Some of them (e.g., Dinter and Strasser) later fell into disfavor.

Caption: The Delegate's Congress in the Kulturvereinshaus

Caption: "The Army of Brown Shirts on the Luitpoldhain. In parenthesis are two quotations from unfriendly newspapers: The Neue Bad. Landeszeitung: "...The National Socialists have long been in ruins...." The Bayr. Kurier: "...Merely a few thousand from across the nation..."
