1937 Rare and extremely controversial photograph of the meeting between Adolf Hitler and the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. This was taken at a time when any normalization of Hitler by European officials was frowned upon, but the Duke (who had abdicated his throne) went rogue and had a visit with the Fuhrer. A bold image from the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well. The photo has some editorial marks and staples from news-room use, but it is a rare piece of WWII history.
