[Below: Front/reverse. One of the rarest of all Third Reich identification books - the Ministerialpass! This was issued to the consulate secretary at the German Embassy in Ankara, Turkey. It was issued to Hans Kroeger on July 15, 1942 and was valid though July 14, 1947. It states that the booklet must be returned immediately upon expiration. On page two it says 'All authorities and military agencies at home and abroad are hereby requested to allow holders of this passport to travel freely and without hinderance and to provide them with protection and assistance, if necassary.'
Very rare to even see something like this.]
