David Irving replies:

SEND me a good scan of the picture please, I would be most interested (also of the back, if it has any inscriptions). It actually shows Hitler visiting the Gauleiter of Essen, Joseph
Terboven (later his viceroy in Norway) in hospital after a plane crash. I seem to remember
Erhard Milch telling me that Terboven, a daredevil aviator, had flown the plane into a hangar.

Terboven had married Ilse Stahl, Dr
Joseph Goebbels‘ former secretary and girlfriend — in fact that wedding was in Essen on
June 29, 1934, the ostensible reason for Hitler’s famous trip to the Rhineland which ended with the
Night of the Long Knives, June 30.[Ilse Stahl diary]

They had this cute daughter, Inge. Pictures of
Hitler wearing that cloak are very rare. I know a gentleman near Atlanta with an album full of them (he bought Ilse Stahl’s possessions, including her diary, right, which she wrote partly in
English). Terboven blew himself up with his family at the end of the war.
