Hitler's Eagle's Nest Silverware - Serving Knife. Complete with copy of affidavit stating:

"On or about May 8, 1945, while I was on duty with the 402d Field Artillery Battalion of the 42d Infantry Division, my driver, Thomas Lambros, and I were at Berchtesgaden, Germany. Since we were well aware of the fact that Adolph Hitler had a "retreat" at Berchtesgaden, we went to his "house" to look for souvenirs. The house had been almost demolished by bombing.

While searching through the rubble for souvenirs, I found almost everything in the house had been destroyed but I did find two crystal goblets which had not been smashed.

My driver, Lambros, was also searching and he found a place on the ground at the rear of the house where he thought something had been buried. We dug in this area and found wrapped in protective covering approximately 375 pieces of sterling silver with the Nazi Eagle and Swastika on them. some of the pieces were partially gold plated. While we were exulting over our discovery, another member of the 402d Artillery Battalion came by and we ended up splitting our find three ways."

Hitler's Personal Train Silver Egg Cup complete with copy of Notarized letter stating:

"Silver Recovered from Adolf Hitler's Train

I, William Lee, am the son of the late Col. Ernest "Tex" Lee, who served at Executive Officer and aide-de-camp to Supreme Allied Commander (and later President) Dwight E. Eisenhower for the duration of the latter's service in that capacity during World War II.

This silver was in my family's possession for the time he returned from Europe at the end of hostilities until his death. Following his passing, the items remained in locked storage under direct family supervision.

My father related to family members that he had obtained the silver from Hitler's train and believed it to be a fitting collection of "war booty" which he thought worthy of keeping retaining as souvenirs of his service in the war.

To the best of my knowledge these egg cups were recovered directly from Adolf Hitler's private train. As my family has no further desire to keep them, we hope that they may find a place in the collection of an avid collector or institution.

Respectfully,
[signed]
William Lee"
