Skyler Tepedino - The Phone That Killed Millions

Summary:

Hitlers phone, who sent millions to their death are now being sold at auction. 

In this article, Hitler’s telephone is being sold at an auction. It is cherry red and is engraved with a swastika. This phone was recovered from the Fuhrerbunker, and kept in a box at an English country house since 1945, will be sold at auction in the United States later this month. The people who work at the auction house call it, "Hitler's mobile device of destruction,” because his one single call would kill the lives of many. According to the auction house a British officer Ralph Rayner recovered the phone from Hitler's bunker while visiting Berlin on the orders of Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery just a few days after the end of the war. Supposedly this single telephone should sell for thousands even millions. 

Analysis:

I think that since people are selling this telephone, this will bring attention to everyone and realize that people still have these things and are still found. People find all these new things every day. This is obviously related back to when Hitler actually called and used that phone and that call determined the death go others.
