Description:

ADOLF HITLER WITH THE MUFTI OF JERUSALEM
A fine contemporary postcard, 6 x 4.5 in., b/w, featuring Hitler meeting the Mufti of Jerusalem (1897-1974) on November 28, 1941. Next to the picture is a caption written in Arabic that reads: 'The leader of the German people, Adolf Hitler and His Eminence, the Grand Mufti Amin Al Husseini during his visit with him in Berlin' with an unknown blue ink signature. Creased through the middle, with minor toning and foxing. During World War II the Mufti collaborated with both Italy and Germany by making propagandistic radio broadcasts, and helping the Nazis recruit Bosnian Muslims for the Waffen-SS. When he met with Hitler he requested backing for Arab independence and support in opposing the establishment in Palestine of a Jewish national home. After the war he sought refuge in Cairo to avoid prosecution for war crimes.

Buyers should be aware that large, framed, fragile or odd shaped items can incur substantial shipping and packing charges.
