Anton Drexler

Anton Drexler (13 June 1884 – 24 February 1942) was a German nationalist and socialist political leader of the 1920s. 
He was instrumental in the formation of the pan-German and anti-Semitic German Workers' Party ("Deutsche Arbeiterpartei" - DAP), the antecedent of the Nazi Party ("Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei" - NSDAP). 
Drexler served as mentor to Adolf Hitler during his early days in politics and helped in making and developing the NSDAP 25 points manifesto when when the Nazi Party was founded in 1920. He is long forgotten since he died in 1942 .
