The mystery buyer showed up at the Hermann Historica’s auction in Germany
dressed in dark clothes and wearing a baseball cap.
Other items auctioned were a pair of Hitler’s pants with leather pockets, X-rays
after his assassination attempt in 1944, and the brass container from where
Goering swallowed cyanide while awaiting trial in Nuremberg.
The Argentinian bidder also paid $47,500 for an aviator watch that belonged to
Goering, as well as some if his silk underwear for $3,400.
