Gift and Christmascard given from Adolf Hitler 1937 to a famous german Opera Singer

[skalphunter]

This is a gift given from A.H to a famous female german opera singer for x-mas 1937. Nice boxed Nymphenburg bowl whit an x-mas card from 1937. The bowl shows the castle Nymphenburg and was not sold in ordinary stores. The card might be signed with autopen. But nevertheless a nice piece of history. Acquired that piece from the grandson of the singer. Nymphenburg was the favoured Porcelain of the high ranking NS elite as well as of AH. The pics are taken in bad light so the goldpainting might not be visible like on the real object. But in reality the bowl seems to be a nice piece of workmanship.

Beautiful plate!!! The signature on the card appears to be printed IMO.

[skalphunter]

It is Autopen and not printed.
I have a friend at the National Criminal Police Office. He looked at it together with his colleauges this morning with the Stereomicroscope. He confirmed that it is not handwritten by A.H but Autopen.

Unfortunately not. The family does not want the name being published. If i ever sell the buyer will get the information with photographs of that singer.

Hi Skalp,

One further comment: the palace pictured on this porcelain dish is the Old Reichschancellery in Berlin, not Schloß Nymphenburg in Munich. The buildings are similar in layout but Nymphenburg is much larger than the Old Chancellery.

Cheers,

Br. James

Thanks Br.James. You are correct . My mistake. Merry x-mas!

My pleasure, Skalp.

One further matter: to my knowledge, Hitler never used an autopen nor did his secretaries sign his name on any cards or documents; Hitler signatures are either original or printed...IMHO, of course! The card in question appears to me to include a printed signature.

Again, cheers,

Br. James

Thanks Br. James ! Mine as well.
I am not an expert or graphologe and do rely on other opinions respectively findings. But in any case we can get to the consensus that it is not a handwritten signature. So either printed or Autopen will imo not make a difference on the total value overall.
