Hitler's Munich Treaty Signing Desk

A brass desk set inscribed "AH" and used by Adolf Hitler in the signing of the Munich Pact,which preceded World War-II was sold for $423000,a US auction house said.The ceremonial desk set,including ink wells and the Nazi crest of an eagle and Swasitka had been expected to fetch at least half a million dollars. It did not fetch the minimum reserve price and failed to sell in live auction.The buyer was a private US West Coast Collector. The massively constructed set may have been designed by Hitler himself.
