Bellevue Starbucks Is Scene for Hitler Bookmark Bust

We know what you're thinking: Wait, Hitler had a bookmark? But this is a special bookmark from Eva Braun with a little note that says, "U & der Reich 4Eva!" (Now is probably a good time to mention we can't read German.) Anyway, the AP says, "Christian Popescu, a Romanian national, was arrested Tuesday outside a Bellevue Starbucks after trying to sell the bookmark to an undercover agent for $100,000." How sordid. No word on Popescu's choice of coffee beverages. How about it Bellevue Starbucks baristas? Did he order?

    Thus, presumingly making them souvenirs for LEGAL sale to the highest bidder???
