<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 1406767, member: 111&quot;]Just stunned me when I ran across it, even without any knowledge of silver, it&#039;s just all &#039;off&#039;, and would think that anyone interested in such stuff, and willing to pay such prices, would have some knowledge regarding its supposed history (could be just militaria collectors).&nbsp; Seems unlikely Magda Goebbels would have much interest in Eva Braun in early 1932, when by most accounts her relationship with Hitler wasn&#039;t even considered at all serious until later in that year, much less give her a set of&nbsp; flatware (and certainly not Canadian - what, no German silver available?) for her 20th birthday.&nbsp; The presentation plate oddly engraved to just &#039;Eva&#039;, but using the &#039;Goebbels&#039; surname without a formal title - if they were friends, would have just been from &#039;Magda&#039; (but then the supposed &#039;provenance&#039; wouldn&#039;t be so obvious).</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a bit on Eva Braun&#039;s flatware (apparently Speers designed the &#039;EB&#039; monogram):&nbsp; <a href="https://www.argunners.com/treasures-silverware-set-of-eva-braun-on-exhibit/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.argunners.com/treasures-silverware-set-of-eva-braun-on-exhibit/" rel="nofollow">https://www.argunners.com/treasures-silverware-set-of-eva-braun-on-exhibit/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
