Description
Adolf Hitler's personal copy of the specially-bound collection of Heinrich Hoffmann photographs: 'Mit Hitler in Polen', by Heinrich Hoffmann and Wilhelm Keitel (Berlin: Zeitgeschichte-Verlag), 1939, 94pp. 4to., a collection of propaganda and documentary photographs chronicling the German invasion of Poland and its aftermath. Includes many images of Hitler touring the carnage he had created. Bound in pebbled red leather boards with a large gilt eagle, swastika and title on the front cover. The verso of the cover bears an authentic example of Hitler's engraved bookplate, indicating that this book most likely came from the Chancellery or the Berghof. The lower part of the cover and spine bear a significant burn, damage possibly incurred at the Chancellery of Berghoff during the bombings and fires at those places. A rare printing - we have seen only one other, and it too emanated from the Chancellery.
