Adolf Hitler Cased Silver Presentation Frame- FHW # 2060

I have a replacement camera battery hitting here later this week and can take about 3 photos an hour at this time, that coupled with shooting into a pane of glass makes me think that less is better here. So interested parties can contact me for information on this piece and will write it up today.

No doubt one of the most desirable trinkets in collecting of Third Reich artifacts is the Adolf Hitler presentation frame. Presented by Hitler to his most senior officers and those within his close circle, these are stunning pieces. The only thing that makes having one of these better is having the original Frieda Thiersch form fitted cassette which is more rare than the frame and manufactured to the highest degree of quality and suited to the same standards as the frame itself, having both is not all that common. This frame is even less common and may even be the first to be visible on the web as it is a larger format.

Manufactured by the firm of Franz & Hermann Wandinger of .925 silver the standard presentation frame is approx. 9 1/2 x 13 1/2 and lies in a form fitted cassette of appropriate size. The frame variant here and others have traded and are discussed but are not often seen and are buried in collections. Measuring approx. 14 5/8 x 10 5/8 inches it is larger and immediately recognizable as such as soon as its seen, Its big. The cassette is form fitted and identical to its smaller counterpart except that it is form fitted for the larger frame and measure approx. 15 1/2 x 11 1/4.

The frame is identical to its little brother in every way, shape, and form and bears the hallmark of Wandinger and the proper silver proofs found on all examples. Exterior obverse is a hammered 3 step design with standard lower Greek Key motif and national eagle and initials AH for Adolf Hitler, its a screamer. Reverse is the typical high grade leather with swing swivels for locking the hinged back plate. The kick stand has the standard ribbon retainer and lift tab for lifting the rear plate for photo placement. The interior photo is period original and fits within the larger display area and has not been cut or altered and has a beautiful silver patina often found on the period original photos, its nice.

The cassette is in very nice condition and has kept the frame itself virtually mint and untouched. As is often the case with boxes and cassettes it does have a few minor handling flaws and that is quite frankly what their designed to do, look nice and protect the frame in this case. Ill stop short of rating it on a percentage basis and say its Exc. ++ and you should be happy when having it in hand. The top interior arm has come away at the base but is still attached and just lays down when the frame is removed. Some corner handling marks and minor hits and if you require photos just ask. The silver embossed national eagle is stunning and the air has given it that nice spotty uneven patina in recess areas.

A beautiful and very rare presentation piece and I think I have covered everything that needs to be covered in the description. If your the discriminating collector type who likes rarity, quality, and overall top notch pieces, this should fit the bill for you as it is a dynamite piece and is looking mighty nice on my dresser at the moment.
