DINNER WITH HITLER JUNE 1939

Very nice example of a rare seating plan for a formal dinner with der Führer on 1 June 1939. Alongside the usual Party bigwigs – including Göring, Himmler, Goebbels, Ribbentrop and Keitel – is none other than SS-Obergruppenführer Reinhard Heydrich. Nicknamed the Butcher of Prague, Heydrich would be assassinated almost three years to the day later, on 27 May 1942 by British-trained Czech commandoes – as part of Operation Anthropoid. A perfect accompaniment with your AH silverware collection.
