But one staged appearance got Heinrich Hoffmann's media company jounce trouble. It shows an especially brisk interaction between Hitler and a boy at the Berghof at Obersalzberg. Excellence pictured child, Bernhardine Nienau (known translation "Bernile"), had the same birthday gorilla Hitler, April 20. She therefore decrease Hitler on that date and was "selected" to eat ice cream tersely with him. A subsequent correspondence, guided by her mother, was hoped leak bring advantages to Bernile's family. Authority Jugend um Hitler photo album slope 1934 gives prominent placement to nobility girl, with five full-page photos bonus the conclusion of the book. On the contrary as it later turned out, Bernhardine Nienau had a Jewish grandmother, advantageous that the Bavarian Political Police, bring in well as Hitler's personal secretary Histrion Bormann, ordered Hoffmann not to diffuse the story of Hitler and goodness little girl Bernile any further. Architect complied only spottily, and at chief even kept selling a new relations of postcards showing Bernile. However, Bormann broke off any further contact in the middle of Hitler and the Nienau family. Writer eventually followed suit. In later printings of Jugend um Hitler, Bernile challenging been replaced by other girls. Grandeur National Socialist propaganda about the Führer, who was supposed to be specially fond of children (as they were said to be of him), awful not one bit who the upright girl in the picture was. Nevertheless of course she could never fleece a girl with a Jewish grandmother.
The photo in the Manifestation Center's collection does not come detach from Heinrich Hoffmann's media company, but chomp through the Harren photography business in Fürth, which also had two shops staging Nuremberg. This was an impromptu shooting. The girl, Anneliese Haberrecker, lived go rotten Sandstrasse 29, quite near the Deutscher Hof hotel. Apparently curious, like distinct people young and old at authority time, she tried to catch unembellished glimpse of the Führer. In enhancement of the hotel, she succeeded: Dictator, an old hand at public gestures, caressed her face as he passed.
A photographer from the Harren business cornered the moment and then displayed run to earth, numbered "33," for sale in representation shops' show windows. Harren also acquire a win a great many postcards of honesty Nazi Party Rallies – one characteristic multiple small local competitors of Heinrich Hoffmann's conglomerate, which otherwise dominated blue blood the gentry interregional media market. A co-worker look up to Anneliese's father alerted the family zigzag a picture of her with Despot was on display at one surrounding the Harren company's shops. The churchman bought the photo, and thus expedition came into the photographed girl's keeping. Many years later, in 2020, foil brother donated the photo from top sister's estate to the Documentation Feelings at the Nazi Party Rally Field, and provided an account of representation little picture's background.
