About this item
For sale is an original WW2 1940s Anti German Propaganda Cold Painted Enamel Hitler Pin Cushion. This is in good condition, however there are some chips to the enamel.
As the Nazi war machine tore through Europe, there was still one way Americans could give Hitler the needle back home... thanks to a novelty pin cushion.With his hands between his knees and bent forward, this 4.5in high figurine from the early 1940s saw the Fuhrer's buttocks covered in a brown tufted fabric - a perfect place to 'stick it' to his Axis of Evil.
And President Roosevelt is said to have found it so funny that he had one on his desk, according to Johnson Smith & Co's Mammoth Catalog Of 5,000 Novelties.
The novelty mail order company's blurb reads: 'It's a safe place to store pins and needles... and will probably be the only useful thing Adolf Shickelgruber [his father's original surname] did.'
During the war, they could be bought for 69 cents, from Johnson & Co. This is a really nice piece showing wartime humour.
This will be sent via Royal Mail special delivery and dispatched within two working days. Happy to post internationally.
