Article Abstract:

Two porcelain vases, once a part of Adolph Hitler's collection, are up for sale in a controversial move by Australian auction houses Christie's and Bruce's. The two Herend vases are selling for $240,000, and independent valuer John Playfoot claims the selling price is inflated because of its association with Hitler and are worth more around $1000.
