SLUG. (MUCK & HITLER)


Berchtesgaden, Bavaria, Germany---Real leader Adolf Hitler is pictured in this exclusive photograph as he played with his dog "Muck," a very beautiful Alsatian at "Wachenfels," his mountain retreat in the Bavarian Alps near Berchtesgaden. Hitler is rarely photographed in this favorite hideout where he seeks a respite from the cares of office. Often these moments of meditation with his dog are reflected in new edicts that are broadcast throughout the Reich.
