"And we haven't finished with you yet, Hans Schmitt!"
Description
A uniformed Nazi with Swastika armband stands over the grave of Hans Schmitt, who is noted in the cartoon as an 'anti-Nazi'. The Nazi yells: "WE HAVN'T [sic] FINISHED WITH YOU YET, HANS SCHMITT!". This cartoon explores the Nazi murders of communist political opponents as well as the imprisonment of priests who interceded for the souls of those who were killed.
