Summary:
An
autographed Adolf Hitler's Nazi treatise, Mein Kampf, has sold at auction in
Los Angeles for $64,850. The treatise is
divided in two cloth-bound volumes which date from 1925 and 1926. The inscriptions
are from Hitler offering Bauer, an early Nazi party member, his best wishes for
Christmas.
Mein
Kamp is a book which Hitler wrote when he was jailed for his failed putsch attempt
and it rails against Judaism and communism. Nate Sanders, the auctioneer, consider
the book heinous but he says that for him is only an auction item like any
other.
Opinion:
In
my opinion this book should be prohibited because in this book Hitler wrote the
basis of his Nazi ideology that promoted the cruel genocide of a lot of people
and the World War II. Apart from that I think it should be prohibited, I think
that the buyers are giving importance to the book and to Hitler by buying it
for this exaggerated price.
