Olympic Pin
The Brandenburg Gate in Berlin was once the main entrance to the city. It became a symbol for the Nazis when they led a torchlit parade through the gate on the evening of Hitler’s appointment as chancellor of Germany on January 30, 1933. This souvenir pin was created in commemoration of the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin.
