Johnny... thanks for the message.......... Yes, he was an amazing man, living so long. Here's another piece I have by him. He evidently was so well known he selected his clients from the " biggies " of the third Reich.

All....... I just aquired this cigarette case from England. Has anyone seen this style of Reichsadler before ? Somewhere in the past I had seen it, but it was so long ago I don't remember where.
It was made by Herbet Zeitner and is 835 silver. I have another item by him, a pokal given to Adolph Wagner by Hermann Goring. Zeitner was Goring's silversmith. Any ideas or opinions sure would help me identify it, possibly the style of eagle could belong to an individual....... In a previous post I had some misgivings about ever recieving the case due to a bad incident just prior to purchasing it, from a scammer in Poland. Thank GOD the seller of the case ( from England ) was the real deal. .....it just reinforces my belief in mankind. ...... Thanks guys !

Johnnyrocket..... here's the scan of Zeitner's letter you requested.
Thanks !!
