    Hitler statue rare?

    Hi, cannot see anywhere to post my photo so I hope a mod can put it into the corret forum if needed.
    Hi I am Neil and my Grandfather was a soldier in the German army in the WWII.
    He left me a few bits including this bronze statue of Hitler.
    Any info would be great.

        Perhaps not this one, looks brass to me , but these are massed produced in india now...including full size AH busts in real bronze. I have a bust... Very convincing, but u have to laugh when these very distinctive bustsare peppered all over militaria sites as originals

              Could be fake.

                He also left me this badge




                I do not know if they are reproductions, but have sold the badge on ebay.

                        Why would they be gone? think this might be a reproduction statue going by what people have said on here.

                          Looks exactly like one my local dealer had in a few months back I did not like it as it lacked quality in every respect

                            How much was he asking for them? looks like it is a fake then.
                            What about the award badge I have shown?

                              Because you posted them through an outside link.

                              Will they be there in one month? A year? None ever stay very long. This is from past experience. Nothing to do with whether you would remove them on purpose or not.
