Hitler’s signed “Mein Kampf” sold for $30,000
Adolf Hitler though dead, his ideology is still alive in his manifesto “Mein Kampf”. More than 80 years after it was first published a signed copy of Adolf Hitler's infamous manifesto was sold on Thursday for $30,000. The semi-autobiographical work outlining Hitler's Nazi ideology was sold to an anonymous telephone bidder at an auction in Ludlow. This book though written in 1924 while Hitler was serving a four-year prison term in the southern German region of Bavaria, the book was first published in 1926.
Although it has been republished abroad, it has been banned in Germany since the Second World War. The value of the book lies in its inscription because signed copy of "Mein Kampf" is a rear proposition.
