It makes me wonder if he has a private room that not even house guests see.

Didn’t see/read it yet.
It’s just… if Nazi memorabilia and Hitler paintings are part of the tour, what does he have that even he might think people wouldn’t understand?

but it’s possible some “collectibles” got away 
Thankfully, I had opportunity to acquire some of the series’ props that Amazon’s aforementioned book burning, prop destroying, PC censorship ‘nazis’ (who would’ve seen ‘everything’ disappeared) weren’t successful in getting to.

Indy: How did you know she was a nazi?

I spent a little time helping with set work at my university’s theater department, and learned that the person who ran the costume shop had a policy of destroying the armbands after every run of a period piece that involved Nazis even though it would save time and effort to keep them around for the next time they were needed because who wants those fucking things around?

I retain a copy of ‘Der Giftpilz’, as a reminder of how little the antisemitic rhetoric of today has changed in the course of 85 years.

I just binge watched the series. What bugged me the most was that they didn’t change Smith’s insignia from Oberstgruppenfurher to Reichsmarshal when he was promoted. He continued to were the lower class Oberst insignia instead of the X insignia of the Reichsmarshal of North America.

The husband of a friend of my wife’s died last year. I only met him twice, but he seemed a smart, scholarly sort. It turned out he had been working on a biography of one of the lesser-known Nazi party members, and of course had lots of source material lying around. His wife, who is German, wasted no time in shredding all of it. Okay, maybe he was an actual amateur historian.
Then… We were helping her clean up the apartment. and she showed us his collection of SA (Sturmabteilung) daggers—genuine ones, not reproductions— some with provenance, and pamphlets he had written about identifying them. 
She offered me one, and I declined. I wanted nothing to do with them. She sent the lot to an auction house in the US, and they fetched around $22,000. I heard that collectors flew in to Buffalo from across the country to bid. It shows what kind of market there is for creepy shit like that. I wonder if Harlan Crow now owns one or more of them.
(I don’t blame her for not destroying them. That’s a lot of money to give up.)

All I know is that he’s not collecting first editions of Maus.

Now Amazon informs me that this evil book is a feckin collector’s item, FFS.
Fortunately the kind of person who would want to buy a copy is exactly not the kind of person I would want to sell it to.

I am intrigued. How many Masons are you trying to fit in them?

I can’t say - it’s too jarring.
