Description
Zara (Zadar), Croatia: Comitato Iniziatore, 1945. Broadside. 45.5cm x 38cm. A single sheet of paper, printed recto only. Clean and bright with a single old very faint horizontal fold mark, and an old number in ink to the upper right corner, a fine example. A call to the anti-fascists of Zara, now Zadar on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia. At the beginning of WW2 Zara was occupied by the Italian fascist forces, then subsequently by the Nazi 114th Jäger Division who were tasked with eradicating Partisan forces on the Dalmatian Coast, and who commited a number of atrocities and war crimes in the execution of this task, along with the Fallschirm-Panzer Div. Herman Göring they were amongst the most despised German units in the region. Zara was subsequently carpet bombed by the Allies, causing massive civilian casualties and enormous cultural loss and destruction to a city which is credited as the oldest continuously occupied community in the region, with regional traces going back to 4,000 years BCE. Subsequent to the fall of the Reich and the end of WW2, Zara was formally renamed Zadar and became a part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. "All Anti-Fascists of Zara (persecuted by the former fascist regime) are invited to participate in the meeting that will be held on 1.xii.1945 in the hall of the Caffe Centrale for business that concerns them. Death To Fascism - Freedom to The People! The Committee" The Caffe Centrale still exists, and is still a well known cafe in the old quarter of Zadar, a piece of trivia made even more amazing by the statistic that the Allied bombings not only killed 20% of the civilian population, but also destroyed more than half of the historical buildings, leading to Zadar being dubbed "The Dresden of The Adriatic." Obviously distributed in a tiny run to a depleted and exhausted local populace, definitively ephemeral. No trace on OCLC.
