Two Nazi stormtroopers stand guard in front of the H. L. Heimann store in Bopfingen, to prevent would-be shoppers from violating the Nazi boycott of Jewish-owned businesses. Two signs have been placed in front of the store. The sign on the left reads: "The Jews are our Misfortune." The sign on the right reads: "A German buys nothing from Jews."
