Hitler - Hermann Historica, Munich (Germany) Herman Historica, the successor of
the fraudulent Graf Klenau auction house,
launched in the past 37 years numerous alleged
'authentic' Nazi militaria, memorabilia and
Hitleriana. On auction nr. 79r it hopes to sell
almost 800 lots with mainly Nazi rubbish.
Amongst it are one 'original' Hitler watercolor
(the umpteenth 'Standesamt München' variant) for
minimal 20,000 euro and a book 'from Hitler's
private library', for minimal 1,500 euro. Jaap van den Born and Bart FM
Droog. Graf Klenau / Hermann Historica. An
auction house with a shady history. Or: how a
crook became a count. Droog Magazine,
Eenrum, 22-05-2019.
One
alleged Hitler drawing estimated on $9,000
- $12,000. The object, an
obvious fake, is accompanied by a
fraudulent Certificate of
Authenticity (CoA) issued by Stephen R.
Pastore. New is that this time a
print from Wikipedia is presented as
complementary evidence. Sigh.
