In 1946, Hitler, or at least some of Hitler, was due to visit the White House for a strange exhibition at the request of President Harry S. Truman, linked to the famous 1944 July Plot and Hitler's girlfriend Eva Braun. Find out the full story here.
Dr. Mark Felton FRHistS, FRSA is a well-known British historian, the author of 22 non-fiction books, including bestsellers 'Zero Night' and 'Castle of the Eagles', both currently being developed into movies in Hollywood. In addition to writing, Mark also appears regularly in television documentaries around the world, including on The History Channel, Netflix, National Geographic, Quest, American Heroes Channel and RMC Decouverte. His books have formed the background to several TV and radio documentaries. More information about Mark can be found at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Fe...

When Dr. Felton mentions watches, I assume he's talking about wristwatches. Recently a wristwatch owned by Hitler was sold at auction for $1.1 million US dollars. Interestingly, Hitler rarely wore a wristwatch. Hitler was 25 years old when WWI began. He was really more a product of the 19th century than the 20th. Prior to WWI wristwatches were considered jeweler for women. WWI was the first war to employ combined arms tactics on a large scale. Such tactics required precision timing, so military men began strapping watches to their wrists out of practicality. Many of those WWI wristwatches (today know as 'trench watches') were cobbled together from smaller diameter pocket watches. Overnight wristwatches went from being a woman's bauble to something practical and very butch. After the Great War wristwatches very quickly displaced pocket watches as the preferred timepiece for men. Elderly men, resisted and continued to carry pocket watches. Interestingly Hitler also avoided wristwatches, which he considered to be effeminate. Hitler also had the advantage of having some flunkies always ready to tell him the time.

I agree with Mark! I have done several "house cleanouts" for friends and family years ago. The house was being sold and the dumpster was partially full when I got there. I started "dumpster diving" in as soon as family members told me he was a World War II vet who had fought in Germany. I returned to show them what I found in the dumpster. I told them all these items are historic and valuable! Many photos of German soldiers, Hitler youth pins, wound badge, Nazi pins, clothing,ect..they eventually said keep whatever you find. The only item they kept was an SS dagger.

So I found a (Nazi) German Iron Cross in my ex’s aunt’s apartment after she had passed away. It was actually kinda shocking to everyone because no one was aware that she had any affiliation with anyone involved in either collecting OR WWII. It’s still a mystery where it came from (as far as I’m aware - I try not to talk to anyone over there), but while it was very grimy, I found it wrapped in a handkerchief in the corner of her top dresser drawer. This is not something she would have purchased online either, she was very old fashioned in that way… only used cash and checks, outside of apparently calling her stock brokers.

Among the many supposedly authentic Nazi items displayed for sale was a framed pair of Eva Braun's underwear, complete with a letter of authenticity. I laughed then and I laugh now, wondering both why anyone would want them and how in the world the "letter of authenticity" was supposedly obtained. If I recall correctly, the listed price was $400, which was a LOT of money back then. There are some very strange people out there! 😁

I think you underestimate the sensitivities regarding Hitler's memorabilia. His house was demolished, the bunker was hidden under a car park and I myself came across (alledgedly) the car of Göring around 1995, a long time after the war. It was standing in the open, behind a Dutch car museum. I found that strange for such a beautiful car to be so neglected and when asked, a staff member of the museum told me that the museum did not know what to do with it. They did not want to display or sell it, as it was feared it would be a Nazi symbol. 50 years after the war....

Mr. Felton your videos are ALWAYS interesting and your topics well researched with information not in other videos. Your videos should be made into a History channel series with your pictures and the reenactment of the actions mentioned in your videos. I look forward to all of your videos and always click on them when they show up in my feed! I'm sending you some love on your PayPal or Patreon account! Keep it up professor Felton! YOU ROCK!!!! Much love to you!

Kenneth, even if he did, he would not be able to talk about them without having the German Government knock on his door to retrieve them, which is why collectors of such items keep most of what they have secret. Collectors are allowed to have items, although not all, as long as they are neither unique, very rare, nor, above all, antisemitic

After Summer of '45, rules were tightened though but my grandfather sent a lot of stuff from Germany to here in Alabama. I have white china with the swastika and German eagle on the back.

I find it odd that a megalomaniac like Hitler would want all his earthly posessions destroyed, instead of having them be revered as relics by his future followers. Part of him would live on through them. Although he also had OCD, so the idea of strangers touching his stuff likely repulsed him.

In fact, if the second unprimed charge had been left together with the primed charge, the resulting explosion would have been of much greater force which would have killed Hitler! Fate can be very odd at times.

Awesome video. Last summer I happened to be going through a second hand consignment shop, that had clothing items shipped in from the East Coast of the USA (Boston area). I happened across an old winter hat that was trimmed with rabbit fur? Looked at the markings and saw a very Germanic 1943 stamped inside. Bought it for $2.00 Cdn. and gave it to my nephew who happens to collect military uniforms and memorabilia. He researched the item and found that it was winter issue for the Eastern Front. Boggles the mind how it got to a small fishing town in Canada. Cheers 🍻,take care and stay frosty 🇨🇦🫡🇬🇧
