DEGESCH ZYKLON B GAS CANISTER COMPANY POISON BOTTLE GIFT
A GLASS GREEN POISON BOTTLE WITH THE WORD GIFT! (POISON) AND SOME SKULL.
MADE BY DEGESCH COMPANY, THE ONE WHO MADE THE ZYKLON B CANISTER POISON FOR EXTERMINCATION IN HOTELS, FARMS AND CONCENTRATION CAMPS
The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Schädlingsbekämpfung mbH (translation: German Corporation for Pest control), in short Degesch, was a German chemical corporation. Degesch produced pesticides used against weeds, rodents and insects. Degesch had the patent of the infamous Zyklon, a pesticide whose "Zyklon B" variant (without odor or irritant) was used to execute people in gas chambers of German extermination camps during the Holocaust. Through the firms Tesch & Stabenow GmbH (Testa) and Heerdt-Linger (Heli) Degesch sold the poisonous gas Zyklon B to the German Army and the Schutzstaffel (SS).
Degesch was founded in 1919 as a subsidiary of Degussa. Its first director was chemistry Nobel laureate Fritz Haber. In 1936, Degussa and IG Farben each held 42.5% of the shares, while Th. Goldschmidt AG held the remaining 15%. During the years 1938 through 1943, Degesch was extremely profitable. For most of these years, IG Farben received dividends amounting to twice the value of their shares.[1] After the Second World War Degesch continued production. In 1986 the company was sold to Detia Freyberg GmbH; the current name is Detia-Degesch GmbH.
