German stamps featuring President Paul von Hindenburg. Von Hindenburg, a World War I hero, credited with the victory in the Battle of Tannenberg, was regarded a conservative, and proposed by most of the democratic parties. The office of the president, although powerful, was a largely representative one in the Weimar Republic, and von Hindenburg did have little impact on it's development. |
