LONDON — More than 80 years after it was first published — and later outlawed — in Germany, a signed copy of Adolf Hitler’s infamous manifesto “Mein Kampf” was sold Thursday for $34,900.
The semi-autobiographical work outlining Hitler’s anti- Semitic ideology was sold to an anonymous telephone bidder at an auction in the town of Ludlow in western England.
Richard Westwood- Brookes, from Mullock’s Auctioneers, said he thought the second-edition book was a prepublication copy given by Hitler to a fellow inmate of Landsberg Prison in 1925, making it a “highly prized article.”
