Online Auction: Some Gems from Jan Fedder's Private Collection Hitting the Market Again 🔥
Auction of portions from the Fedder estate happens once more - Fedder inheritance again faces threat
Hey there! Guess what's happening in Hamburg, Germany? The late, great actor Jan Fedder, known for his iconic role as police commissioner Dirk Matthies in the ARD evening series "Großstadtrevier", had a knack for collecting unique items during his lifetime - from cars to historical artifacts. And guess what? Some of these treasures are now up for grabs!
On Sunday evening, prepare for a thrilling show, as weekly online auctions will kick off for a staggering 18 diverse items, spilling the beans about Jan Fedder's intriguing life. Marion Fedder, his widow, confirmed this to the German Press Agency in Hamburg, following her husband's passing in 2019.
Now, here's the real kicker! One lucky bidder could get their hands on a one-of-a-kind Cuxhaven pilot's cap that none other than former Chancellor Helmut Schmidt used to wear. This cap, a true collector's item, was originally snatched by Jan Fedder from his idol himself on the occasion of writer Siegfried Lenz's 80th birthday (yep, you read that right). The cap has been on display as a loan at the Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt Foundation thus far.
Car enthusiasts, brace yourselves! Classic cars are also up for grabs. Get ready to bid on an eye-catching Messerschmitt Kabinenroller KR 200 from 1958, which Jan Fedder himself drove to his wedding at the Hamburg Michel in 2000. Another BMW luxury sedan from 1958 is on the block as well.
The proceeds from this auction will be put towards an exciting new community center on the Reeperbahn in honor of Jan Fedder. Marion Fedder's plan? An interactive experience world for everyone to enjoy.
Since Jan Fedder's unfortunate demise, Marion Fedder has been auctioning off her husband's valuable possessions, with the proceeds going towards supporting the Hamburg Michel, a place that was close to Fedder's heart.
