Hitler's unpretentious home

Here's a cheery feature on the Fuhrer's home, published in 1938 in Britain's Homes and Gardens magazine. Details from The Guardian. A little controversy about copyright law. IPC (A Time-Warner Company) asserted copyright ownership of the text and pictures. (Amazing the lengths that owners of "intellectual property" will go to protect their property--as if it has any commercial value at all.) It turns out the photographs from this article are in the public domain; they were taken by Hitler's publicity photographer Heinrich Hoffmann. For stamp collectors, an interesting tidbit, as Simon Waldman reports:

Heinrich Hoffmann took thousands of publicity shots of Hitler. Most importantly for his bank balance, he took the photos of Hitler that appeared on Germany's stamps during the war, and Hitler kindly let him have a royalty on each stamp. As a result, after the war, he was imprisoned for being a Nazi profiteer.

Don't be hateful to people, just because they are hateful to you. Rather, be good to each other and to everyone else. Always be joyful and never stop praying. Whatever happens, keep thanking God because of Jesus Christ. This is what God wants you to do. --1st Thessalonians 5:15-18 CEV
