One of Illustrierter Beobachter special issue "France's Guilt" covers in 1940, depicting two French African soldiers, Charles de Gaulle and a Jew in a top hat with a flag, bearing the words Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité.
It began as a monthly publication and its first issue showed members of the Bamberger Nationalist Party marching in front of a Jewish Synagogue[2] and denounced Jacob Rosny Rosenstein, a potential Nobel Laureate as a "disgrace to German culture". Special editions denounced England and France for starting the war.[3]
