Mess with ze Girl and you get ze HITLER!
Telegraph has a neat thing up: apparently Jefferys auction house in southern England is auctioning off some old paintings attributed to Mr. Adolf Hitler that were found in a Belgian attic.
"Hitler, who was born in Austria, had shown some artistic promise as a schoolboy. His beloved mother, Klara, had died when he was 19 and the following year, 1909, he moved to Vienna confident that he would win a place at the Academy of Arts.
However, when he failed to gain a place, he lived in homeless shelters and ate in charity soup kitchens.
He did some menial jobs and also sold some paintings and drew advertising posters to help make ends meet."
So basically Hitler has the ultimate rags to riches story, and lived the American dream. Sort of.
