Die Fünf Frankfurter

Postcard shows each character with a smug look on his face.

"The Five Frankfurters" is an anti-Semitic comedy in three acts, by Carl Rößler, which refers to the five sons of the banker Amschel Meyer Rothschild, the ancestor of the famous Frankfurt banking dynasty. The Rothschilds' success story began in Frankfurt am Main towards the end of the 18th century, when they created one of the largest banking dynasties in Europe. Never in history has a single family owned as large a share of the world's wealth as the Rothschilds in the 19th century.
In the comedy, Rößler is about the Frankfurt banker Meyer Amschel Rothschild, who went grew from a humble start into a huge European bank, penetrating into government financing.

The stereotype of Jew in which he controls all the money.
