Anti-Freemason Exhibition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grand Anti-Masonic Exhibition (Serbian: Antimasonska izložba) was the name of an antisemitic exhibition that was opened in Belgrade, in Nazi-occupied Serbia, on October 22, 1941. This exhibition was part of a propaganda campaign by the Germans to "unmask the Jewish freemason and communist conspiracy that is behind all the society's ills". The exhibition was financed by the German occupiers, and as part of the exhibition a number of commemorative stamps were issued in 1942. The exhibition was supposedly visited by some 80,000 people.[1]
