Grab the knix worn by Hitler’s Eva

-

A PAIR of silk frilly knickers worn by Hitler’s mistress Eva Braun to get him in the mood for shagging will go under the hammer this week.

The lilac undies have Braun’s monogramme­d initials embroidere­d on the front of them as proof they were hers.

An American serviceman found them in an abandoned bunker in the Platterhof Hotel, next to Hitler’s Berghof home in the Bavarian Alps, and kept them as a souvenir.

They changed hands twice before being bought by a British collector of militaria, who is now selling them for an estimated £450 at an auction in Malvern, Worcs.
