Luz ist zu lesen, Hitler habe diese Feldbluse im Frankreichfeldzug 1940 getragen, sie müsste demnach im Führerhauptquartier ""Wolfsschlucht"" bei Bruly de Peche von Hitler benutzt worden sein und tatsächlich zeigen Aufnahmen Hitler am 21. Juni 1940 bei der Verlesung der Präambel zum Waffenstillstandsvertrag im Eisenbahnwaggon von Compiègne durch Generaloberst Keitel ihn einer sehr ähnlichen Feldbluse. Der Schnitt mit den übergroßen breiten Schoßtaschen, den geraden Taschenklappen und den langen Ärmelaufschlägen ist ebenfalls typisch für Hitler, genauso wie der feingewebte Stoff. Unseres Wissens ist diese Feldbluse die einzige bekannte militärische Uniformjacke Hitlers, der ja alle seine Kleidungsstücke bei Kriegsende vernichten ließ. Von besonderem Interesse ist diese Feldbluse dadurch, dass Hitler sie im Frankreichfeldzug getragen hat. Bedeutendes, museales, gut dokumentiertes, historisches Objekt.Provenienz: Dr. W.A.

Adolf Hitler - a field grey tunic, March 1940 Adolf Hitler - a field grey tunic, March 1940Custom-tailored in fine woven field grey cloth, two superimposed breast and flap pockets, the left breast pocket with insertion holes for the Party Badge, the Iron Cross 1st Class and the Wound Badge in Black, the sleeves with wide facings, the right shoulder with loop for the shoulder strap, the left sleeve with silhouette of the sleeve eagle, grained gilt buttons ""RZM UE 65"", tailor label in the collar ""Wilhelm Holters - Berlin W 50 - Tauentzinstr. 16"", in the left breast pocket a label for ""Adolf Hitler - Nr. 1857 - Mai 1940"", partial field grey silk-like liner. Length 80 cm. Extensive documentation is included: A handwritten letter from Dr. Lattimer to Ben E. Swearingen dated 3 November 1971, in which he sends a check for the tunic and a watercolour by Hitler. A letter from Ben E. Swearingen dated 27 March 1982 in which he offers Dr. Lattimer Hitler's black trousers (also in the present auction) and again clarifies the provenance of the tunic. Also, photocopies of validations by Dr. W.A. Luz, Berlin, Robert Abels, New York, 1969. Stephen W. Bumball, 1962 and 1963 (notarized). Julius Schaub, 1963. Anny Brunner-Winter, 1962. Otto Günsche. Hans Baur, 1965. Further, two older black and white photos of the tailor labels. The following original confirmation are no longer available: a letter from Edward P. Rich, New York, to Dr. Lattimer dated 26 October 1971 in which Mr. Rich (Ben E. Swearingen's mediator) thanks Lattimer for his interest in Hitler's tunic. A letter from Edward P. Rich to Dr. Lattimer dated 3 November 1971 with reference to former owners of the tunic, like Robert Abels and Stephen W. Bumball. A letter from Ben E. Swearingen to Dr. Lattimer dated 7 November 1971 in which he writes that he acquired the tunic from Dr. W.A. Luz of Berlin, who is now deceased, before he was able to write Ben Swearingen telling him which German general had brought back the tunic with him from France. A letter from Ben E. Swearingen to Dr. Lattimer dated 17 November 1971 in which he describes the provenance of the tunic: Dr. W.A. Luz, Berlin. Robert Abels, New York. Colonel Edward A. Schaefer, Arlington, Virginia. Ted Lenkel, New Jersey. Ben E. Swearingen. A letter from Edward P. Rich, New York dated 18 November 1971 in which he assures Dr. Lattimer that Hitler wore this tunic during the Campaign in France. Pictured and described in John K. Lattimer, Hitler and the Nazi Leaders - A Unique Insight into Evil, p. 43, Fig. 19. In the statement by Dr. W.A. Luz we read that Hitler wore this tunic during the Campaign in France in 1940, and that it therefore must have been used by Hitler at his ""Wolfsschlucht"" HQ near Bruly de Peche, and indeed Hitler is shown in images taken on 21 July 1940 at the reading out of the preamble to the armistice agreement by General Keitel in the railway car at Compiègne to be wearing a very similar tunic. The type with the oversized wide flap pockets, the straight pocket flaps and long cuffs is likewise typical for Hitler, in the same way as the finely woven cloth. To our knowledge, this is the only known military uniform jacket of Hitler, because all of his other clothing pieces were destroyed by the end of the war on his own order. It is also of special interest that Hitler wore this tunic during the Campaign in France. An important, museum-quality, well-documented historical object.Provenance: Dr. W.A.

Adolf Hitler - lange schwarze Hose Feine schwarze Gabardine, vorne zwei eingeschnittene Taschen, die linke ohne Taschensack, die rechte mit einem großen, hellbraunen, ledernen Taschensack, rückseitig zwei Gesäßtaschen mit Klappen, von denen die rechte ebenfalls im gleichen Leder ausgeführt ist, Bundweitenversteller, die dunklen Knöpfe am Bund bis auf einen bezeichnet "Herm. Scherrer München", der Bundhaken mit Hersteller "Kronen Haken", im Tuch Monogramm des Stoffherstellers "G R G", der Bund mit hellem cremefarbenen, seidenartigem Tuch gefüttert. Bundweite in der vorgefundenen Bundweiteneinstellung 96 cm, Gesamtlänge 115 cm, Länge der Hosenbeine bis zum Schritt 80 cm. In der rechten ledernen Hosentasche soll Hitler seine Walther PPK getragen haben, die linke, jetzt fehlende, sollte durch Hitlers Kammerdiener Heinz Linge vergrößert werden, was aber infolge der Wirren des Kriegsendes unterblieb. Hermann Scherrer war ein in München seit 1886 alteingesessenes Modehaus, das sehr beliebt bei der wohlhabenderen Münchner Bevölkerung war und sich 1907 ein aufwendiges Werbeplakat vom bekannten Künstler Ludwig Hohlwein gestalten ließ: "Hermann Scherrer Breechesmaker - Sporting-Tailor - Neuhauser Str. 32". Dazu Herkunftsbestätigung Heinz Linge 1971 masch.geschr. und händisch signiert. Die ursprünglich vorhandenen Bestätigungsschreiben sind nicht mehr vorhanden: handschriftlich, dito 1972 mit zusätzlicher Bestätigung durch Martha Bornholdt, dem ehemaligen Zimmermädchen Hitlers, dito in Englisch 1972, Bestätigung William R. McClure an Ben E. Swearingen 1982, vier Polaroid-Fotos der Hose mit Unterschriften von Heinz Linge oder Martha Bornholdt, großes Hoffmann-Foto von Hitler und Linge mit rs.

Certif. by Linge." Abgebildet und beschrieben in John K. Lattimer, Hitler and the Nazi Leaders - A Unique Insight into Evil, S. 47, Fig. 29, 30. Sehr interessantes geschichtliches Objekt. Hitler trug insbesondere in den Kriegsjahren nahezu ausschließlich diesen Hosentyp zum feldgrauen Uniformrock. Interessant die lederne rechte Hosentasche für Hitlers PPK 7,65 mm, in der Gesäßtasche trug er angeblich die kleinere PPK 6,35 mm. Hitler soll ein trainierter und in jeder Position sicherer Pistolenschütze gewesen sein, sein Begleitkommando nannte ihn einen "Zwölfer-Schützen", auf dessen kaltblütige Reaktion im Attentatsfall jederzeit Verlass sei.

Adolf Hitler - a pair of long black trousers Adolf Hitler - a pair of long black trousersFine black gabardine, in front two cut-in pockets, the left without pocket sack, the right with a large, light brown leather pocket sack, two back pockets with flaps, of which the rightmost is likewise furbished in leather, waist size adjuster, with one exception the dark waist buttons marked "Herm. Scherrer München", the waist clasp with maker "Kronen Haken", the cloth with maker "G R G", the waist lined with light cream-coloured silklike cloth, waist width adjustment 96 cm, length 115 cm, length of trousers legs to instep 80 cm. In the right leather pocket Hitler was said to carry his Walther PPK, the left, now absent, was supposed to be enlarged by Hitler's valet Heinz Linge, but this did not happen due to the turmoil at the end of the war. Hermann Scherrer was a long-established Munich fashion house from 1886, very popular with the wealthier citizens, and in 1907 had a lavish advertising poster made by the famous artist Ludwig Hohlwein: "Hermann Scherrer Breechesmaker - Sporting-Tailor - Neuhauser Str. 32". Included is a typed and handwritten certificate of origin from Heinz Linge in 1971. The following original confirmation are no longer available: a corresponding 1972 statement from Martha Bornholdt, Hitler's former chambermaid, also in English from 1972, and a 1982 statement from William R. McClure to Ben E. Swearingen as well as four Polaroid photos of the trousers with signatures of Heinz Linge or Martha Bornholdt, a large Hoffmann photo of Hitler and Linge with a reverse statement of Linge in English "...and I confirm that the black pair of trousers which are in your possession are those which the Fuehrer has been wearing. Heinz Linge.", lastly a colour photo of the pair of trousers with stamping "William McClure, Pontiac, Michigan, USA" and a handwritten note "Adolf Hitler trousers purchased from Heinz Linge. Certif. by Linge." Pictured and described in John K. Lattimer, Hitler and the Nazi Leaders - A Unique Insight into Evil, p. 47, Fig. 29, 30. A very interesting historical object. Especially in wartime, Hitler wore this type of trousers almost exclusively with the field grey uniform coat. Also of interest is the right leather pocket sack for Hitler's PPK 7.65 mm, and reportedly he carried the smaller PPK 6.35 mm in the back pocket. Hitler was a trained and sure marksman in any stance. His personal guard nicknamed him "Zwölfer-Schütze", whose coldblooded reaction could be relied on in case of an assassination attempt (Henry Picker, Hitler's Table Talk in the Führer Headquarter, 23 March 1942).Provenance: Dr. W.A.
