Product Details

A RARE SILVER-PLATED CAFETIERE, BY TRADITION FROM HERMANN GOERING'S RAILWAY CARRIAGE,
just pre-war, with two-part cylindrical body, the top half with plated plunger, lid and perforated base, the bottom half with applied 'D.R.' (Deutsche Reichsbahn) and eagle swastika device, the base of both halves numbered '242', the lower half trademarked 'ALPAKA' with a stamp of a steam locomotive

Provenance: Leading German officials all had personal Pullman railway cars. Known numbers of Hitler's were '10205' and '10206' with possibly others. Herman Goering had four known cars, numbered '10242', '10243', '10244' and '10245'. All silverware and tableware was marked with the last three digits of the respective car. It is believed this particular piece was recovered from Goering's train whilst stationed at Ober-Salzburg in the last two weeks of April 1945
