    Adolf Hitler Solid Silver Formal Apettizer/desert fork from The Führerbau, with provenance

    Adolf Hitler Solid Silver Formal Apettizer/desert fork from The Führerbau, with provenance

    A superb solid silver Apettizer/desert fork from Adolf Hitler’s personal formal silverware, it features an embossed Fuehrer Adler (the Leader’s Eagle) clutching a wreathed Swastika which is flanked by Hitler’s initials ‘A’ & ‘H’. The reverse side of the spoon has the impressed hallmarks; a crescent moon, the imperial crown, the silver purity mark ‘800′, and the imperial eagle. There is a fabulous impressed greek-key ‘Meander’ border along all edges of the front side of the fork handle.

    Originally there are believed to have been six complete sets of 500 pieces, 3,000 pieces in total, commissioned by Albert Speer and manufactured by Bruckmann in the ‘formal pattern’ of silver flatware and tableware presented to Hitler on the event of his 50th birthday on 20th April 1939. The formal silverware sets were distributed among the places Hitler frequented the most; the ‘Berghof’ (Hitler’s mountain home), ‘Kehlsteinhaus’ (the Eagle’s Nest), the ‘Gasthaus’ (Guest House) at Obersalzberg, the ‘Braune Haus’ (the ‘Brown House’), the Führerbau in Munich, his ‘Prinzregentenplaz’ apartment in Munich, and the ‘Reichskanzlei’ in Berlin.
    These smaller Formal silverware items are much harder to find than the usual large dinner knives and forks, making them very desirable indeed.

    The design for the AH Formal silverware is attributed to Adolf Hitler himself adding yet another level of desirable collectability to these pieces!

    The fork comes complete with provenance documentation (copy) pertaining to it’s original acquaisition, along with a further 82 pieces of Adolf Hitler silver ware (and other items), by Mr. Baros Wilson of the 48th Combat Engineers, and subsequent sale to Mr. A.W. Wood in 1946. Mr Wilson had obtained the silver from the basement vault underneath the Führerbau in Munich, Germany in 1945.

    Condition:

    This beautiful little fork displays minor surface marks commensurate with age and use, a beautiful-looking display piece, a rare ‘Hitler’ personal item, complete with provenance, a very desirable and quite superb investment piece.

    Bruckmann, Silver Toast Rack from Adolf Hitler’s Dining Wagon 10 ‘242’

    Bruckmann, Silver Toast Rack from Adolf Hitler’s Dining Wagon 10 ‘242’

    An extremely rare silver toast rack, specially produced by Bruckmann for the Deutsche Reichsbahn Sonderzugs.
    The toast rack carries designation marks for Adolf Hitler’s Sonderzug, the ‘Fuhurersonderzug’ (known as ‘Amerika’ in 1940, and later ‘Brandenburg’), and in particular carriage number ‘242’ which was Hitler’s executive dining wagon.
    The main body of the rack has slots for eight slices of toast or bread with an elongated lifting handle situated on the centre ring, at each end of the rack is an oval plate, each of which features a finely detailed Deutsche Reichsbahn Eagle with wreathed Swastika straddled by the letters D and R all in relief. There are four ‘ball’ feet to the base, and stamped into the base rim is found the ‘ALPAKA’ silver mark, the Bruckmann ‘train’ makers mark, followed by the impressed number ‘242’ indicating the wagon number.
    Please check out our gallery photographs for this piece, we have included some actual images of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, along with their respective entourage, on the platform outside wagon number ’10 242’, it is quite extraordinary, or maybe creepy, to know that the toast rack we present here was on that train wagon at that time.
    Hitler, himself, would most likely have taken slices of dry bread from this rack, not toast, as he would have prefered to simply take a slice with marmalade or jam!

    Without doubt this is one of those ‘If it could talk‘ pieces!

    This is one of the rarest of the rare Deutsche Reichsbahn, and Hitler items to find, an unmissable purchase for the diserning collector or museum curator.

    Large, heavy, Round Serving Tray from the New Reich Chancellery

    Large, heavy, Round Serving Tray from the New Reich Chancellery

    A quite Superb Large round serving tray, made from German heavy silver plate over copper, produced by Wellner for the Neue Reichskanzlei.

    The tray is perfectly round, with a step down form, having a flat top/outer rim, and then an inclined slope leading down to the tray bowl. The base is of heavy thick copper, which dictates that this tray would have been warmed to serve food straight from the kitchens.

    The tray features a spectacular and finely detailed Reichskanzlei Eagle with wreathed Swastika straddled by the letters R and K to the lower edge of the upper slope. To the reverse is found the stamped ‘Wellner’ makers mark, followed by a small stamping ’67’ indicating the silver content, and then the impressed number ‘156494’ indicating the tray’s inventory designation.

    In late January 1938, Adolf Hitler officially assigned his favourite architect, Albert Speer, to build the New Reich Chancellery around the corner on Voßstraße, a western branch-off of Wilhelmstraße, requesting that the building be completed within a year. Hitler commented that Bismarck’s Old Chancellery was “fit for a soap company” and not suitable as headquarters of a Greater German Reich. Speer was given a blank cheque as Hitler stated that the cost of the project was immaterial.

    The Tray would have been used at most if not every event which high echelon, foreign dignataries, Third Reich officials, other VIP’s, and of course Hitler himself, attended.
    Without doubt this is another one of those ‘If it could talk’ pieces!

    Condition:

    The tray displays surface marks and scratches, and a few small ‘dings’ but in overall superb condition, and an absolutely beautiful display piece. Incredibly rare serving tray from Hitler’s Neue Reichskanzlei. Excellent investment potential.

The obverse features a finely detailed Deutsche Reichsbahn Eagle with wreathed Swastika straddled by the letters D and R all in relief to the bottom of the handle. To the reverse is found the stamped Bruckmann & Sohne ‘RM800 Eagle and Crown’ (indicating 800 silver content) makers mark, and then the impressed number ‘242’ indicating the wagon number.
