Information Provided by Michael D. Bulmash:

Business card of the Felix Hunger Company on Taborstrasse in Vienna, the second largest city in Greater Germany. The company sold yarn, rope, hard and soft fibers of all kinds, but the most interesting aspect of the card is the notation in between the Swastikas at the top which proudly announces "Deutsch arische firma seit 1842", or an "Aryan German firm since 1842."
