Paul von Hindenburg (1847-1934) was a German field marshal during World War I, winning a decisive engagement with Russia in the 1914 Battle of Tannenberg. At age 78, he came out of retirement to serve as the second president of the Weimar Republic (1925�34), and is perhaps best remembered in that role for his reluctant appointment of Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler as Chancellor of Germany.
Price Range: $125-$175
