Forged papers that caused a scandal when they were published as real in 1983 will be given to national archive
The fake diaries of Adolf Hitler, which sparked outrage when they were published as genuine 40 years ago, are to be displayed for public viewing at the national archives in Germany.
The counterfeit journals were published by Germany’s Stern magazine and sold around the world, including for serialisation in the Sunday Times. They will be handed to the state for preservation, Bertelsmann publishing house which owns them, said.
