Rosenberg Book Presented to Himmler (Item HH 1-2)

DESCRIPTION: This is a leather-bound copy of the book by Alfred Rosenburg, 1893-1946, a Reichleiter and editor of the Der Volkischer Beobachter and minister for the newly liberated territories in the east. He was generally accepted as the mentor of Nazi ideology. He believed in Nordic supremacy and his various books and papers sought to confirm these thoughts among the German populous. He wrote this book to praise and make immortal the deeds and philosophy of Ullrich von Hutten, a dashing knight, revolutionary, and poet of 700 years before the formation of the Third Reich. The book in unique form and specially bound was printed in 1938 at the Great Press at Mainz. This was the press of the Gutenberg Museum and was presented to Heinrich Himmler by the NS Teachers' Association in Gau Hessen Nassau during the New Year's period. It is hand signed or imprinted with the signature of the Gauwalter of the NS Lehrerbendes. The book measures 9" x 6" and is very thin; less than ¼" thick. A very rare article; prodigiously important in the archives of the Third Reich.

PRICE: $2,000

Heinrich Himmler Book (Item HH 1-3)

DESCRIPTION: These are two books with H. Himmler's signature on the front flyleaf. These books came with the Lebensbaum, the Rosenberg, and the Nuremberg pieces. We feel that these books belonged to the future Reichsführer- when he was a student. It is typical of his early signature, but also is very like his later one. Any handwriting expert can see that the signatures are old, and we guarantee it. The books were printed in 1847 and they are dictionaries of the German and French languages. They may have belonged to his father, but we do believe the signature to definitely be Heinrich's. The books both seem to be the same with 581 pages. They measure 8 x 5 ½ inches and are a little over an inch thick. For their age they are in remarkably good condition.

PRICE: SOLD

Heinrich Himmler Dedication Dagger (Item HH 1-4)

DESCRIPTION: This is a classic example of the H. Himmler dedication dagger with the handwriting facsimile of the Reichsführer-

on the blade. It has the ebony-colored grip which is identifiable as an Eickhorn production by its unique shape. The sigrune button has a copper tint (see Wittman's book, Exploring the Dress Daggers and Swords of the German SS). The eagle in the grip has the high neck often seen on Eickhorn products, but unlike many Eickhorn daggers, there are no noticeable gaps in the grip to cross guard fit. The Eickhorn squirrel is clear at the base of the blade. The dedication In Herzicher Kameradshaft H. Himmler is beautifully etched having a full black artificial patina applied to the distinctive presentation. The cross guard is benchmarked '5.' The patina of the

motto on the front of the blade matches exactly with that of the Himmler dedication as it should. The anodized scabbard finish is fine and unscratched. The grip show the usual bumps and nicks of a dagger that was worn, but not abused. This is a textbook example according to Thomas Wittman and he has observed that these daggers were presented for, among other things, appreciation for the recipient's participation in the action of the night of the long knives. The putting down of the Ernst Röhm insurrection. This appears to be true since this dagger came to us through a family whose relatives included a man who took part in this scenario. We had his

photo collection and this documented the

purge against Röhm and his associates. This is practically the ultimate in an

dagger and very sought after. Condition of the blade is near perfect. Overall condition extra fine.
