PAULA HITLER
(1896 - 1960) Younger sister of Adolf Hitler, his only sibling to survive into adulthood. She never joined the Nazi Party and largely remained on the sidelines, though after the war she accepted the charity of ex-SS officers and survivors of Hitler's inner circle. Scarce T.L.S. 'Paula Hitler-Wolf' (the 'Wolf" added during her brother's rise to power to help her avoid publicity), 1p. 4to. on airmail onionskin, Berchtesgaden, May 26, 1953 in German to Russell F. Anderson who was negotiating with her to write her memoir. In part: '...You have made the suggestion to me...to answer the questionnaire in whatever manner I find convenient. Herewith, I am sending you the first part...You mention the negotiations...I will revert to this another time. I am expecting a payment of $100...I am now...just as interested in the quick completion as you are...the rush...is a heavy strain on the nerves...' A few tiny edge tears, else very good. With transmittal envelope.
