Horst Wessel Bronze Bust ( Ernst Paul Hinckeldey ) 1939 # 1719

An extremely rare larger-than-life-sized hollow-cast bronze bust of Horst Wessel. Wessel an SA Sturmführer shot by communists was later martyred by the National Socialist Party. Best known for having penned the lyrics to the Horst Wessel lied, or, Die Fahne Hoch, adopted as the official anthem of the N.S.D.A.P.

This bronze portrait is the head portion of a life-size statue of Wessel in his SA Sturmführer uniform which was unveiled in Bielefeld, Germany in June of 1939, only months before the war began. The sculptor is Ernst Paul Hinckeldey (1893-1953).

The life-sized statue ( shown ) was melted down by the Germans in 1945 for salvage for the war effort, and this may be the the only one in existence, and other than period photos of the full figure I have never seen it.

Because the bust is unsigned, it may have been cast for the use of the sculptor, and very possibly unique. It bears the foundry mark of: Guss H. Heinze Berlin.

This bronze bust itself measures 16" tall and is mounted on a pink marble base. The overall height is 21 1/2" tall and rather large.
