Abstract

During the Soviet blockade of Berlin, which lasted from June 1948 until May 1949, industrial firms in West Berlin continued to manufacture products despite the shortage of raw materials and supplies. The goods produced in Berlin during this time of adversity were marked with the label “Made in Blockaded Berlin.”
