October 24 in Munich, has held an auction of things with the initials of Adolf Hitler, but the auction house Hermann Historica Muenchen may cancel bids.

"We reserve the right not to conduct this auction, under certain circumstances," - said a spokeswoman for auction house in Munich.

"Hermann Historica recognizes its responsibility to hold the event and considers it his duty to be as cautious in declaring the auction," - she added.

According to her, "the auction house wants to prevent the spread of information about the auction," since it can provoke "a competition between museums and private collectors."

As previously reported, the auction will set things with the initials of Adolf Hitler - a silver cigarette case, salt, sugar tongs, silverware and glasses for reading. In this case, the potential buyer at the same time would assure that the purchase will be used by them only as a collector's item.

Recall that in September, up for auction were displayed portraits of Hitler parents, listed as works of art belonging to him. In January, for $ 48 000 (less than expected) was sold to a selection of previously unpublished photographs of Hitler taken by his personal photographer Heinrich Hoffmann.
