Item Description
Here is reply on my inquiry from STIFTUNG DEUTSCHES HYGIENE-MUSEUM
Unfortunately, we do not have any surviving documents. The archives were largely destroyed in 1945. The medal was most likely minted in 1922, but not issued until 1930. The source is: : Karl Scheuch: Medaillen aus Porzellan Band II Ausgabeorte D bis E, 1968 ( (scan). This design was created during a period of great financial difficulties. We do not know whether it was intended as an award or a souvenir. The "Hygiene Eye" has been inextricably linked to the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum (DHM) since the official poster of the 1st International Hygiene Exhibition in Dresden in 1911 (design: Franz von Stuck). In 1921, it was officially confirmed as a symbol for exhibitions (see the exhibition guide "Der Mensch" 1921, scan). The museum also manufactured teaching materials. In 1923, a "Aktiengesellschaft für hygienischen Lehrbedarf" (stock company for hygienic teaching materials) was founded from the workshops, and the eye was the trademark since 1925. The museum building was only opened in 1930. On this occasion, the Second International Hygiene Exhibition in Dresden was held in 1930/31. The city of Dresden and the museum organized it jointly. Various medals from Meissen were again issued as "exhibition commemorative coins."
