Thank goodness Germany lost the war. Just imagine the combination of the American corporate penchance for bad taste combined with the NSDAP fascination with personality cults and Wagnerian excess.

Is it just me or does it look like he's smoking a cigar? It's funny how he looks more like superman in profile than the pictures of Hilter I've seen! Theres Propaganda for you!

It does make me wonder what other Items were being bunged out on the production line? Mickey Mouse watches or the ones with the Nudie girls?


Cheers!
