| Description | Cartoon shows a man with a globe head looking across the Rhine at a citadel on the opposite bank labeled "New German Republic." The caption is the title of an old German national song written in the 19th century. Probably drawn in 1949 as the Western zones of occupied Germany were given limited independence as the German Federal Republic. Suggests that the world looked on with some concern as the Germans began to recover some of their pre-World War II power. |
