Description
This monkey was "stole" off of Hitler's desk in WW2 by my grandfather,so the story he told.I do have the newspaper clipping of where he and his batallion hijacked a train and was pulling a surprise attack on his compound.to capture him ( Hitler).When they stromed his place he was some how tipped off and was already
gone,leaving behind a still smoking cigar in the ash tray.My grandfather said that he was'nt leaving there empty handed so he grab this monkey off his desk for a souvenir.thats was his story,not sure about the monkey but I can prove he was there with the newspaper clipping.
