Original Italian WWII Mussolini & AH Wall Plaque by S. Vittori - 7 ⅜” Diameter

Original Item. Only One Available. Benito Mussolini was an Italian political leader who became the fascist dictator of Italy from 1925 to 1945. Originally a revolutionary socialist, he forged the paramilitary fascist movement in 1919 and became prime minister in 1922. Called “Il Duce” (the Leader) by his countrymen, Mussolini allied himself with jugend, relying on the German dictator to prop up his leadership during World War II, but he was killed shortly after the German surrender in Italy in 1945.

This is a very interesting Italian-made wall plaque commemorating the alliance between Germany and Italy before and during World War II. The plaque depicts Mussolini and Adolf H standing next to each other and facing forward. The plaque measures 7 ⅜” in diameter but no longer has a method of hanging it on the wall. There is what appears to be a boss with a slit hole underneath, so this could likely hang off of a wire, but we are not certain of this.

A good display piece for any German or Italian collection, ready for display.
