An Adolf Hitler watercolour

I am sorry, but some things just make you sick. Baby seals being clubbed. Nursing home inmates indulging in orgies. And Hitler paintings being sold at an auction house at Ludlow, England for the combined value of over $140K.

One of them, for instance, a $15,000 1910 self-portrait of a boy sitting on the bridge is going to hang in the home or office of one Mr. Ratledge.

Why, I ask you? Would you want a dictator’s watercolor in your home? How about a nice framed postcard of Dachau? There might be a discount for purchasing in bulk.

Oh, and another question if I may? What’s with pictures of farmhouses and cats and roses? The man liked his realists, sure enough, so much so that abstract paintings were burned, but rose bouquets? Please! Writing his Producers, was Mel Brooks right? Was the Fuhrer REALLY called Adolph Elizabeth Hitler?!
